The Metropolitan Museum of Art is a private corporation,
managed and controlled by a Board of Trustees, chosen from its
members.
At a public meeting, held on the 23rd day of November, 1869,
a Provisional Committee of Fifty cultured and public-spirited
citizens were appointed to organize the Association.
On the 31st day of January, 1870, at a meeting of this Com-
mittee, the Officers and Trustees were elected, consisting of a
President (John Taylor Johnston), two Vice-Presidents, a Treas-
urer, Secretary and twenty-one Trustees.
On the 13th day of April, 1870, a Charter was granted by the
Legislature of the State of New York, and at a meeting of the
Trustees, held on April 27th, 1870, a Constitution was adopted.
Soon after, negotiations were entered into which consummated
in the purchase of a collection of pictures, consisting chiefly of
specimens of the Dutch and Flemish Schools, but containing also
important works of Italian, French, Spanish and English masters.
It became necessary to make immediate preparation for the
custody and exhibition of these paintings. The Trustees took
accordingly a lease for two years from May, 1871, of the building
known as No. 681 Fifth Avenue, which, although too small for
their purpose, was the most available habitation they could find.
In 1872, The Metropolitan Museum of Art was removed from
its temporary quarters at 681 Fifth Avenue to 128 West Fourteenth
Street. This large, double house, known as the Cruger Mansion,
was leased for a number of years by the Trustees. The greenhouses
and conservatories were fitted up for the exhibition of sculptures,
and in one of its courtyards the Trustees built a picture-gallery.
This gallery, lighted from the roof, had five times as much wall
space as the old quarters on Fifth Avenue, and enabled the Trus-
tees to extend the interest of the Museum by loan exhibitions of
paintings, and the display of the Cesnola Collection of antiquities
from Cyprus, a portion of which had already arrived in this coun-
try. The Museum remained in this building until the last days
of 1879, and was daily open to the public from 10 o'clock a.m.
until 6 o'clock p.m.
On the 5th of April, 1871, the State Legislature, at the request
of the Municipal Authorities of this City, passed an act appropriat
ing the sum of |500,000, with which to erect a building in the Cen-
tral Park, " for the purpose of establishing and maintaining therein
a Museum and Gallery of Art."
On April 22d, 1876, the Legislature authorized and directed the
Department of Public Parks to make and enter into a contract with
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, for the occupation by it of the
building which was then being erected, and such other additions as
may be made to it from time to time.
On the 24th day of December, 1878, the Park Department exe-
cuted a written agreement with The Metropolitan Museum of Art,
by virtue of which the Trustees took possession of the building in
Central Park, which was then finished; and during the year 1879
all the collections of the Museum were removed from the building
on Fourteenth Street and transferred to their new home in Cen-
tral Park. Up to this date the Museum was managed, and its work
done, by different Committees of Trustees; but it now became evi-
dent that the daily work had grown far beyond the possibility of
being managed through the personal supervision of committees, and
in 1879, General Louis Palma di Cesnola, who was then Secretary of
the Board, was chosen Director and placed in charge of the Mu-
seum, in which capacity he remained until his death (November
20th, 1904).
The new building in Central Park was formally inaugurated oy
President Hayes, on March 30th, 1880. The first exhibition of the
Catharine Lorillard Wolfe Collection took place in one of the old
Eastern galleries. Soon after it was found necessary to add two
wings: the South and the North. The first was inaugurated
December 18th, 1888; the second, November 4th, 1894; in both
cases with appropriate ceremonies.
Plans were then formed by President Henry G. Marquand,
General di Cesnola, and the Board of Trustees, and designs made b_y
the architect, Richard M. Hunt, for the creation of a new building
which would more appropriately house the art treasures confided
to their care, and the City promptly made the necessary appropria-
tion of one million two hundred thousand dollars for immediate
•ise in the furtherance of the project. On December 22d, 1902, the
center portion of the east front of this new building was completed
and formally placed in the hands of the Trustees by the Mayor, the
Hon. Seth Low, and the doors were then opened to the public. In
1904 the City made another appropriation of one million two hun-
dred and fifty thousand dollars for extending the new building down
Fifth Avenue about three hundred and fifty feet, the working plans
for which are now being perfected by the architects, McKiui, Mead
& White, and the construction will be commenced at as early a date
as is practicable.
The building is of light gray stone, classical in design, and
will, when completed, form a hollow square with the old structures
enclosed in a grand court. The estimate of the total cost is twenty-
two million dollars.
The chair of the President, made vacant by the death of Mr,
Henry G. Marquand on February 26th, 1902, was filled by Mr. F
W. Ehinelander, who died September 24th, 190-1. On November
21st, 1904, Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan was unanimously elected Presi-
dent, and on January 21st, 1905, Sir Caspar Purdon Clarke was
•lected Director, of the Museum.
The Board of Trustees have absolute control of all the funds
donated and bequeathed to the Institution for its enrichment, and
such other funds as are or may be appropriated by the City for its'
maintenance.

This hand-book embraces all the pictures which a,re con-
tained in the galleries, staircases, and the Grand Hall. Of
the pictures herein catalogued, some are lent, a large num-
ber have been purchased by the Trustees, and the others have
been acquired either by gift or bequest. The larger portion of
them are accompanied by conditions which render impossible a
proper classification of the pictures in the galleries of the Museum,
and, while the Trustees fully recognize the logical, historical and
aesthetic reasons for such a classification of their exhibits, they do
not think it of greater moment (at least for the present) than their
acquisition. Miss Catharine Lorillard Wolfe bequeathed in 1887
her entire collection of oil paintings and water-color drawings to
the Museum, accompanied by an endowment of $200,000. The
income of this fund to be used for the preservation and increase
of the collection, which by the terms of the will must be kept
together or be forfeited to the legal heirs of the donor.
Other donations and bequests of great value, both in objects of
art and money, have from time to time augmented the wealth and
the treasures of the Museum: the first being the munificent gift
of Mr. Henry G. Marquand, embracing 53 oil paintings by Old
Masters, and pictures of the English School; the last, in impor-
tance, that of Mr. Jacob S. Rogers, who at his death (July, 1901)
bequeathed to the Institution his whole fortune, amounting to
several millions of dollars.
The "Horse Fair," by Eosa Bonheur, was given by Mr.
Cornelius Vanderbilt; then followed the gifts of Judge Henry
Hilton, "Friedland, 1807," by Meissonier, and the "Defense
of Champigny," by Detaille. Mr. George I. Seney also gave
twenty oil paintings, containing valuable examples of the M@d-
ern Dutch, French, and other Schools. "A Quartette/' by Will-
iam T. Dannat, was the gift of Mrs. Wm. H. Dannat.
The Museum contains examples of nearly all the leading and
world-famed schools of paintings, from Jan Van Eyck (1390-1440)
to the latest and most interesting of the modern painters. In
Gallery No. 11 may be seen the first acquisition of the Museum by
purchase, in 1871, a collection of pictures comprised of works by
the early Dutch and Flemish painters.
In the southeast staircase there is a group of eight pictures of
the Kenaissance period, purchased at Florence, and given to the
Museum by Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt in 1880.
Gallery No. 15 is occupied with pictures from the collection of
Mr. George A. Hearn, twenty-four of which he has given to the
the Museum.
A remarkable work by Eugene Delacroix, " L'Enlevement de
Bebecca/' has been added to the Catharine Lorillard Wolfe Collec-
tion, also a landscape by Eousseau and "Boats on the Shore," by
Daubigny. And "The Whale Ship/' by Joseph Mallord William
Turner.
"The Portrait of the Princesse de Conde/' by Jean Marc
Nattier, " Marie Marguerite Lambert de Thorigny," by Nicolas de
Largillierre, and "The Emperor Joseph II. of Austria/' by
Francois Hubert Drouais ank "Volupte," by Jean Baptiste
Greuze, were purchased by the Museum, and have been placed in
Gallery No. 19. Among the most recent acquisitions by gift and
bequest are: "Washington Crossing the Delaware," by Emanuel
Leutze, gift of Mr. John S. Kennedy; "Portrait of George
Washington," by Charles Wilson Peale, gift of Mr. C. P.
Huntington; Portrait of President Henry G. Marquand, by John
S. Sargent, given by the Trustees of the Museum; "The Grand
Canal at Venice," by J. M. W. Turner, the bequest of Mr. Cor-
nelius Vanderbilt; " Christopher Columbus," by Sebastiano del
PiombO; gift of Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan; " The .ZEgean Sea,"
by F. E. Church, gift of Mr. Wm. Church Osborn and Prof.
Henry F. Osborn; " Cambyses' Punishment of an Unjust Judge,"
by Peter Paul Eubens, gift of Mr. Wm. E. Dodge, and "The
Holy Family," also by Peter Paul Eubens, gift of Mr. J. Henry
Smith in 1902. And " The Portrait of Baron Arnold De Koy,"
by Van Dyck, the gift of Mr. George A. Hearn, 1905.
The most important loan in the year 1902 was that of Mr. George
W. Vauderbilt, who lent for one year one hundred and thirty-five
pictures from the collection formed by his father, Mr. William H.
Vanderbilt. The term of this loan has now been extended in-
definitely.
All the paintings in Galleries Nos. 11, 13, 14, 17, 18, 20 and 21,
including those in the staircases, are the property of the Museum,
as well as a large number of those in Galleries Nos. 12, 15, 19 and 25.

ALBANI, Francesco. Bologne.se School.
Born at Bologna, 1578; died there, 1660. Son of a silk merchant. Hia
father desired to bring him up to his own profession, but his decided art genius
so asserted itself that he was placed in the academy of Denys Calvaert, where
Guido Reni was a pupil. Albani and Guido became friends, and when the
latter went to Rome and entered the school of Carracci, Albani quickly fol-
lowed. When Annibale Carracci was employed on the frescos of St. Giacomo
degli Spagnuoli he fell sick, and by his recommendation Albani was selected
to finish them. He also painted the mythological frescos in the Verospi (now
Torlonia) Palace. In the Borghese Gallery and at Turin are his famous
pictures of the "Four Elements." He also painted for the Duke of Mantua
the stories of "Diana and Actceon " and "Venus and Cupid." His best
pictures are those of mythological and fanciful subjects.

Gift of Mrs. Jeremiah Milbank, 1891.
Signed and dated, 1889. On canvas, 49J H.; 39J W.
ALLEGRI, Antonio (called II Correggio) (?). Parmesan School.
Born at Correggio in 1494 ; died there, March 5, 1534. Son of Pel-
legrino Allegri. Probably pupil of his father's brother, Lorenzo, and of
Antonio Bartolott?, both second-rate painters of his native town. At Modena
he is said to have found a better master in Francesco Bianchi, called Ferrari,
who belonged to the school of Francia; but as Bianchi died in 1510, this,
like all that concerns Correggio's training, is uncertain. "Correggio looked
at the world in a single mood of sensuous joy," as a place in which every-
thing is full of happy life and soft pleasure. A poetic ideality untrammeled
by the conventionality of schools, systems, or methods other than his
own, found fullest expression in an all-pervading sweetness which charac-
terizes his works. "The Madonna of St. Francis" (1514), "Madonna of St.
George," "Madonna of St. Sebastian," "LaNotte" (1522 or 1528), Dresden
Gallery, " Rape of Ganymede," " Jupiter and Io," Vienna Museum; " Madonna
Adoring Jesus," Uffizi, Florence; "Marriage of St. Catherine," Louvre, Paris.
Other works may be seen in St. Petersburg, London, Naples, Venice, and other
Galleries, notably that of Parma.

afterwards of Santo di Tito, whose style Cristoforo at first followed, but
abandoned for the new Florentine eclectic manner based on that of Correggio
He became one of the best artists in Florence of his time, but his habits
were irregular, and he left but few pictures. He excelled in portrait

Porta. Florentine School.
Born at Soffignano, near Prato, 1475; died at Florence, 1517. He was
a pupil of Cosimo Rosselli in Florence, and lived near the gate of St. Piero,

intimate friend of Mariotto Albertinelli. He had acquired great fame for
the beauty of his Madonnas, and had been commissioned to execute a
fresco of the "Last Judgment" in the Convent of St. Marco, about the time
when Savonarola went to Florence to preach against the sinfulness of the city.
Bartolommeo became the earnest friend of the preacher, and was so carried
away by his influence that he burned all his studies and drawings of profane
subjects and those which represented nude figures. When Savonarola was
seized, tortured, and burned, Bartolommeo took the vows of a Dominican
friar, and left the unfinished pictures to be completed by Albertinelli. During
four years he led a most austere life, never touching his pencil. About this
time Raphael arrived in Florence. He was but twenty-one, but already a
great painter. He visited the friar's cell, and a deep friendship between the
two was the consequence. To this we owe the after works of Fra Barto-
lommeo. About 1513 he visited Rome. After his return to .Florence he
executed the "Madonna della Misericordia," now at Lucca, and the "St.
Mark," which is in the Pitti Palace. His boy angels are beautifully painted.
His works are seen in the Louvre, Vienna Gallery, and the Berlin Museum,
but he is best studied in Florence.

665 JUSTINIAN IN COUNCIL.
Paris Salon, 1886.
Justinian I (Flavius Anicius Justinianus) , surnamed the Great, a B^zan^
tine Emperor, born at Tauresium, a village near Sardica (now Sophia), in
Bulgaria, in 482 or 483 ; died, 565. He was the son of a poor barbarian family,
but his elevation was promoted by his uncle, Justin I, who, shortly before his
death in 527, adopted him as Co-Emperor. The political events of his reign
may be summed up in the wars of Beiisarius and the eunuch Narses, who
obtained successes over the Persians in the East, and the Vandals and Goths
in Italy, and in the terrible sedition which broke out at Constantinople in 532.
The glory of his reign is the famous digest of Roman law, known generally as
the Justinian Code, which was compiled out of the Gregorian, Theodosian, and
Hermogenian codes, by the ablest lawyers of the empire, under the genius of
the jurisconsult, Tribonian. Their labors consist — I, of the "Statute Law,"
or Justinian Code, properly so called. II, "The Pandects," a digest of the
decisions and opinions of former magistrates and lawyers. These two com-
pilations consisted of matter that lay scattered through more than two thou-
sand volumes, now reduced to fifty. Ill, "The Institutes," an abridgment in
lour books, containing the substance of all the laws in elementary form.
IV, The laws of modern elate, including Justinian's own edicts, collected into
one volume and called, "The New Code." These labors, which a Caesar had
not been able to accomplish, were completed by the year 541. Besides this
important work of imperial reform, Justinian was a great builder and engineer,
and works of public utility were kept constantly in progress in all parts of the
empire. He was remarkable for his temperance and chastity, and not less for
his great learning and diligent application to the duties of his high office.

BERCHEM (Berghem), Claes (Nicholas), (Nicolaes).
Dutch School.
Born at Haarlem, 1620; died at Amsterdam, 1683. Son of Pieter
Klaasze. The reason for his being called Berchem, or Berghem, is not known,
but he usually signed his works by that name. He studied with his father,
Van Goyen, J. B. Weenix, and Jan Wils, and married the daughter of the latter.
It is evident from his works that he went to Italy, although no account of his
having done so is given He painted genre, battles, landscapes, cattle, and
porl raits. His best works are his small landscapes with figures and cattle.
Berchem is the most celebrated of the group of painters to which he belongs.

Smith describes 417 of his works, and he left besides more than fifty etchings.
The galleries of Munich, Dresden, Vienna, Berlin, St. Petersburg, and the
Louvre contain the largest number of his works. Some are also in England,
in the National Gallery, and at Dulwich, and Lord Ashburton has one of his
best productions, called " Le Fagot." He seldom made large pictures.

338 THE MASSACRE OF THE MAMELUKES.
"The Viceroy of Egypt, wishing to crush at one blow the warlike Mame-
lukes who were making havoc among his people, on the first day of May, 1811,
convened, under a false pretext, their leaders.
"They were to meet in the old Palace of Cairo, and these proud Mame-
lukes in gorgeous robes, and golden helmets shining in the sun, rode up the
strange, narrow street, cut out of the solid rock, where, in this narrow defile,
conscienceless Mehemet had laid his trap. When the brilliant procession
arrived at the gate 'El Azale,' the soldiers cried 'Treason!' as they saw each
house filled with Albanians, armed with long guns. The Mamelukes, sur-
rounded by impassable walls, fell like ripe corn, under a hail of bullets, a con-
fused mass of men and beasts; the horses, neighing in their fright, bounded
through pools of blood over the bodies of the wounded, while the conquerors
of a hundred battles, now conquered, shook their clenched fists at the terrible
walls. Death passed over them like a whirlwind, not sparing one out of the
five hundred horsemen."

BLUM, Robert F. American School
Born at Cincinnati, Ohio, 1857; died, 1903. At the age of sixteen he
entered a lithographic establishment, but soon came to New York and gave a
number of years to illustrative work. From 1 880 to 1889 lie made several trips
abroad. In 1890 he went to Japan, commissioned by the Scribners to work
conjointly with Sir Edwin Arnold. In the mean time his paintings had
brought recognition and he was awarded bronze, silver and gold medals. The
"Bead Stringers," a Venetian subject, occasioned his election as associate
member of the Academy of Design, and "The Ameya" brought him into full
membership. Upon his return from Japan in the fall of 1892, after writing and
illustrating articles on Japan, and completing several easel pictures, Mr. Blum
made an entirely new departure, taking up mural decoration. The "Moods of
Music" in Mendelssohn Hall, begun in 1893, is his first serious effort along the
new lines and is an initial proof, as later productions bear witness, that the
artist was well qualified to exercise his powers in the broad field of mural
painting.

650 THE HORSE FAIR.
Rosa Bonheur made her debut at the Paris Salon of 1841, to which
she sent two small pictures of sheep, goats, and rabbits. She exhibited each
following year except 1851-52. In 1853 she exhibited her masterpiece, the
now famous " Horse Fair." The subsequent history of this painting is given in
the following extract from a letter written to Mr. S. P. Avery by Mr. Ernest
Gambart, the original purchaser of the picture, formerly of London, and now
retired from business and living at Nice : ' ' I will give you the real story of the
'Horse Fair' now in New York. It was painted in 1852 by R,osa Bonheur,
then in her thirtieth year, and exhibited in the next Salon. Though much
admired, it did not find a purchaser. It was soon after exhibited at Ghent,
meeting again with much appreciation, but was not sold, as art did not flourish
at the time. In 1855, the picture was sent by Rosa Bonheur to her
native town of Bordeaux, and exhibited there. She offered to sell it to the
town at the very low price of 12,000 francs ($2,400). While there I asked her
if she would sell it to me, and allow me to take it to England and have it en-
graved. She said: c I wish my picture to remain in France. I will once more
impress on my countrymen my wish to sell it to them for 12,000 francs. If
they refuse, you can have it, but if you take it abroad, you must pay me
40,000 francs.' The town failing to make the purchase, I at once accepted
these terms, and Rosa Bonheur then placed the picture at my disposal.
I tendered her the 40,000 francs, and she said: 'I am much gratified at your
giving me such a noble price, but I do not like to feel that I have taken advan-
tage of your liberality. Let us see how we can combine in the matter. You
will not be able to have an engraving made from so large a canvas. Suppose I
paint you a small one of the same subject, of which I will make you a present.'
Of course I accepted the gift, and thus it happened that the large work went
12
traveling over the kingdom on exhibition, while Thomas Landseer was making
an engraving from the quarter-size replica.
"After some time, in 1857 (I think), I sold the original picture to Mr.
Wm. P. Wright, New York (whose picture gallery and residence were at Wee-
hawken, N. J.), for the sum of 30,000 francs, but as he claimed a share of the
profits of its exhibition in New York and other cities, he really paid me only
22,000 francs for it. I offered to repurchase the picture in 1870 for 50 000
francs, but ultimately I understood that Mr. Stewart paid a much larger p'rice
for it on the dispersion of Mr. Wright's gallery. The quarter-size replica, from
which the engraving was made, I finally sold to Mr. Jacob Bell, who be-
queathed it, in 1859, to the nation, and it is now in the National Gallery in
London. A second, still smaller, replica was painted a few years later, and
was resold some time ago in London for £4,000 ($20,000). There is a'lso a
smaller water-color drawing, which was sold to Mr. Bolckow for 2,500 guineas
($12,000), and is now an heirloom belonging to the town of Middleborough.
That is the whole history of this grand work. The Stewart canvas is the real
and true original, and only large size ' Horse Fair.'
"Once in Mr. Stewart's possession, it never left his gallery until the
auction sale of his collection, March 25, 1887, when it was purchased by Mr.
Cornelius Vanderbilt for the sum of $55,500, and presented to the Metropolitan
Museum of Art. Hamerton calls Rosa Bonheur 'the most accomplished
female painter who ever lived,' and adds: 'She is a pure and generous
woman as well, and can hardly be too much admired, whether we regard her
as a woman or artist. She is simple in her tastes and habits of life, and many
stories are told of her generosity to others.' "

Born at Zwolle probably between 1613 and 1617; died at Deventer, 1681.
A contemporary of Teniers, and, like him, a painter of genre subjects, but of the
higher ranks in life. He usually represented but few figures, and such scenes
14
as ladies at their toilets, musical parties, conversations, etc. He excelled in
painting elegant costumes, and his white satin dresses are especially remark-
able. The general tone of his pictures is cool, his heads being warmly colored.
He painted small portraits, but these are rare in public galleries. His own
portrait is at The Hague. His works number a little more than one hundred,
and are of enormous value.

364 RELIGIOUS PROCESSION IN BRITTANY.
Purchased in 1873 from the collection of the late Baron Strousberg,
Berlin. The Brittany peasantry are very quaint in their costume, wearing
broad-brimmed hats and flowing hair and in some districts trunk hose of the
sixteenth century. They are usually spare and wiry in their persons, almost
unchanged in their manners, customs, and habits, and old legends and super-
stitions still retain their hold on the popular mind. Of ancient monuments of
different ages there is no lack in Brittany, and above all, of Celtic remains;
those extraordinary masses of rough unhewn stones are supposed to be in
some way connected with the religion of the Druids. Brittany appears to
have been the sacred land of the Gauls, the center of their worship to which
the various nations and tribes repaired on pilgrimages at stated times to pay
their devotions. Their mysterious influence is not yet by any means effaced
from the minds of the lower orders of Brittany. Almost every church has its
strange legend, and every saint his special patronage, and on his fete day a pil-
grimage or pardon is celebrated. The pardon of St. Mathurin held at Lamballe
on Whitsunday is much frequented by pilgrims, who dance the old Breton
dances. The pardon celebrated four times a year at Rumegol, near Le Faou, is
attended with very curious ceremonies. These pardons take place at fixed
17
periods around about certain churches, but often in uncultivated fields, where
tents are erected, and where the fete continues for several days, and is attended
by thousands of the peasantry of both sexes. The most important of these
■pardons are those of Ste. Anne d'Auray, and of Ste. Anne de Palud, which last is
the most picturesque of all, and takes place at the seaside. The one repre-
sented in M. Breton's picture is held at Kergoat, near Douarnenez and Quim-
per.

113 "TITAN'S GOBLET, 1833."
A remarkable symbolic painting by the distinguished American painter,
influenced by the' Norse Legend of the Tree of Life. The rugged mountains
catching the departing gleams of the setting sun form the background for a
gigantic cup placed on the projecting point of a rocky headland jutting into a
sea, on the shore of which is seen an Eastern City, in the immediate foreground
verdure-clad cliffs glowing in the setting sun, an extensive landscape spreading
out to the left. The spiritual idea in the center of the painting conveying the
beautiful Norse theory that Life and the World is but as a tree with ramifying
branches, is carefully carried out by the painter, the stem of the goblet being a
massive tree-trunk, the brandies of which spread out and hold between them
an ocean dotted with sails, surrounded by dense forests and plains, in which
appear Greek ruing and a modern Italian building, typical of ancient and
modern civilization. The painting has been exhibited at the Pennsylvania
Academy of Fine Arts, 1S42, and many later exhibitions.

CONSTABLE, John, R.A. English School.
Born at East Bergholt, June 11th, 1776; died suddenly, a.t London, 1837.
His style was very broad and powerful, and his landscapes are possessed of a
noble quality which reveals the beauty of English cultivated scenery in the
most charming manner, and his landscapes, in which mills, weirs, and dykes
are prominent features, often glisten with the early morning dew, or, wet
with rain, sparkle in the sunlight bursting through the storm clouds in the
sky. He was both vigorous and realistic; strong in his originality, yet refined
ar-d cultivated in his mind. His pictures possess a quality which fill a place
unoccupied by any other English landscape painter, and they have done much
to form the style of the modern French landscape school.
252 A LOCK ON THE STOUR.
An old timber lock, through which a boat is passing from the higher to
the lower level, occupies the middle foreground of the picture. In the bow of
the boat one man is tugging at a rope, and two other men are engaged opening
the gate of the lock; on the left the country is flat, bounded by low hills which
encircle the church the square tower of which marks the place where the village
stands. Cumulus clouds fill the sky, and a group of old oaks with their massive
foliage shadow the canal which passes underneath their branches.
Exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1824, and sold on the first day of the
exhibition for £157 10s. It is engraved in Constable's Works, also on wood in
Brock-Arnold, Life of Constable, p. 78. This picture was in the possession of

by John Constable, London, in 1833, and was purchased from Alfred Lucas,
brother of the engraver.

Copy of the picture in the National Gallery, London.
Situated on the bank of the Stour, and known as "Willy Lott's House."
The house occupies the center of the picture and is illumined only by a glint of
light which penetrates the group of heavy, dark, oak trees which overshadow
the whole place. Some cows have wandered down into the stream, and two
boats are there containing figures. At the left are some rocks and heavy
timbers with brush, which border the stream and lead on to a hill in the middle
distance. The sky is filled with silvery-gray clouds. "Flatford Mill," the
property of the painter's father in East Bergholt, Suffolk, was near this place.
Constable painted this subject several times. The one in the National
Gallery in London was in the Vernon collection, and was engraved by J. C.
Bentley.

tree trunk above, a man waves his hand in welcome to those below, where a
woman is springing from the bow of a boat, and two others are holding a live
ape between them. A faun is carrying a deer ashore upon his back and a
man at the left is in the act of swinging a boar from his back to the ground.
In the middle distance at the left, the woods are on fire and the hunters are
busy with their prey.

an opening over the fields on either side to the hill and sky beyond. The fore-
ground is crowded with fauns, satyrs, men and centaurs, with huge knotted

woods by fire. The fight is fierce to the death and extends to all parts of the
picture: at the right lies the dead body of a man with his club beside him, and
near by an animal has sprung from a tree and fastened his teeth in the neck of
a centaur; prominently at the left, two men attack a lion who is biting a boar,

359 DAY DREAMS.
Sitting, full length, leaning back in a chair richly upholstered with tapes-
try, is a graceful youth dressed in black velvet; a small white collar is at the
neck and white cuffs are at the wrists. His ideal head leans against the back
of the chair as he watches with a dreamy expression two soap bubbles which
float in the air before him. Relaxation from study is expressed in every line
of the figure and the hands which lie listlessly by his side, one of which is resting
upon the seat of the chair, the other holding the straw with which the bubbles
were blown. 0n a table before him are a spinning top, a glass of froth, a
bunch of school books, and a mirror, and above the youth's head, on the
wall, is a wreath of laurel. The background is warm gray.

Born at Antwerp, 1584; died at Ghent, 1669. Pupil of Raphael Van
Coxcyen, in Brussels, a contemporary of Rubens, who, it is said, admired his
works. He was also the friend of Van Dyck, who painted his portrait.
Crayer's pictures were mostly of biblical subjects. His color was subdued, but
truthful; he had a free, masterly touch, and his feeling for beauty sometimes
31
borders on the ideal. "The Coronation of St. Rosalie by the Infant Christ/*
in the Museum at Ghent, is one of his finest works; this picture was carried
away by the French, but returned. The "Martyrdom of St. Blasius," in the
same museum, was his last work, executed when he was over eighty years old.

CUIJP, Aelbert. Dutch School.
Born at Dortrecht, 1620; died there, 1691. This highly gifted painter
was from early infancy associated with, and attracted by, the beauties of
graphic imitation. His father, Jacob Gerritz Cuyp, an artist of no inconsid-
erable talent both in portraiture and landscape, was one of the foimders of the
Academy of Painting at Dort, and it was from him that Aelbert received his
first instructions, and in his early works may be traced the style of his father.
England appreciated and purchased his works long before his own country-
men recognized his ability.
260 LANDSCAPE WITH CATTLE.
In the immediate foreground, beneath a glowing sunset sky, a large group
of cattle is watched over by a cowherd and his dog, both stretched out upon
the meadow grass near by. At the right, and beyond, a man is leading a
horse, and a soldier stands watching some fishermen drag their net upon the
bank of the stream on which are two boats, one with the sail spread. Upon
the opposite bank are two mansions. At the left of the spectator the river
fades away and there are vapory indications of a distant town near the
horizon.

656 A QUARTETTE.
Three of the four strolling musicians are seated on a wooden bench in a
bare room with an entrance door at the left, and at the right a window screened
with a rickety old green blind through which the sunlight breaks in streaks
across the broken slats. At the left of the group is a burly Spaniard sitting
squarely to the front with his large mouth wide open, singing. His face
except for a glint of light on his temple is in deep shadow. He wears a white
coat trimmed with black cloth and gold buttons, a sash and breeches of dark
blue, a dark 'kerchief is bound closely about his head, and sandals are on his
feet. At his left, the center of the group, is a young woman playing the
castanets. Her face and figure are to the front in deep shadow; she wears a
black dress relieved by two bright red bows; her bare shoulders are visible
through a heavy, coarse knit shoulder cape ; and a high shell comb rises above
her coal-black hair. Sitting by her side with his back to the spectator is a
man leaning over to the right, smoking a cigarette and playing upon a guitar.
Behind this group is another man who stands leaning against the wall by the
window with his head thrown back and his face animated by the song he sings
and the mandolin he plays.

664 A
DEPARTURE OF EMIGRANTS FROM HAVRE.
A steamship lies at the wharf where are gathered a multitude of emi-
grants, mostly of German origin, who are about to embark for a foreign land.
In the foreground at the right, among the crowd and yet a little apart, is a
family group. The mother is nursing her infant, while an older child, fast
asleep, leans heavily against her shoulder. The father is stretched out at
full length, with his head resting upon his left hand; and a cloud of blue
smoke curls upward from a pipe which he is smoking. His son sits idly by,
gazing at his mother and the infant. An older sister with very blond hair
stands by, holding a child in her arms. In the center of the picture is an old
35
<voman with a large bundle; her right hand is extended to receive from a
girl who sits at her side a piece of bread, which has been taken from a basket.
Behind these stand three men in conversation, one of whom with an Alsatian
air is smoking a large German pipe. Sitting at the left is a man, tired and
listless, with a hat in his right hand, and by him is a young German girl in a
tall hat, who holds with both hands a large black bag. Beyond are a mass*
of people huddled together, and the steamer, broadside on, with its gang-
planks out, receiving both human freight and baggage. The picture is
gray, colorless, and depressing both in subject and treatment.

treated with consummate skill and power.
433 THE NIGHT PATROL AT SMYRNA.

and North Africa in 1831, and between that and 1855 executed important
public commissions, decorating the Chamber of Deputies, the Library of the
Luxembourg, the Church of St. Sulpice, and galleries in the Louvre and the

382 L' ENLEVEMENT DE REBECCA.
Rebecca, a character in Sir Walter Scott's novel "Ivanhoe," was the
daughter of Isaac of York. She secretly loves Ivanhoe whom she cures of a
wound, and repulses at the peril of her life the criminal love of De Bois Guil-
bert, on account of whose infatuation she is condemned as a witch, but is
saved by the sudden death of her accuser. In the foreground, Bois Guilbert,
mounted on a restless dapple gray horse, has turned in the saddle and is reach-
ing out to receive the limp form of the swooning maiden from the hands of a
knight, who has borne her in his arms from the burning Chateau Front de
Boeuf, which is in flames on the crest of a hill. A cavalier at full gallop, fol-
lowed by others, is about to arrive from the scene of the abduction.

389 SKIRMISH BETWEEN COSSACKS AND THE IMPE-
RIAL BODY-GUARD, 1814.
Tearing down a muddy roadway through a wood of leafless trees are a
squad of brigandish looking Cossacks, pursued and overtaken by Napoleon's
Imperial Guard, who rush upon them with overwhelming force, cutting right
and left with their curved swords. The leader of the Cossack band, mounted
on a light horse loaded with plunder, turns in his saddle with a ready pistol
raised to shoot. Others are scattering through the woods, and at the left, one
has clutched a soldier to drag him off his horse. The long spears of the Cos-
sacks in a conflict like this are of little use and there is safety only in flight.

562 THE DEFENSE OF CHAMPIGNY.
Paris, May 29, 1897.
Mr. Henry Hilton.
My Dear Sir: I have learned with great pleasure that you have become
the purchaser of my painting, exhibited this year in our Art Salon, and I am
happy that it finds a place in your gallery, which enjoys a very great reputation
in France. I know that I shall be "in good company" with you, and it is so
much the more gratifying to me, as I consider this last painting the most im-
portant work I have ever produced.
The episode which I have chosen gives scope for a great development of
subject. It is the moment when the division of General Faron (now inspector
of Marne), after having taken Champigny, situated above the Marne, fortified
itself in the village and defended, foot by foot, the house and enclosures against
the return attack of the Saxony and Wurtemberg divisions, in the battle of 2d
December, 1870. The chateau which I have shown is one of those which are
found at the fork of the two roads at Chennevieres — a place well known to
those Parisians who took part in the scenes of the siege of Paris. The officer
39
shown in the center of the picture is General Faron, who was appointed Gen-
eral of Division on the field of battle. The foot soldiers belong to the 113th
Regiment of the Line, who lost a great number in the three days of fight. The
Sappers, who are making the embrasures in the wall to allow the sharpshooters
to fire under protection, and are barricading the opening with all kinds of
material; the artillerists, who are placing the battery guns in position; all like-
wise were under the orders of General Faron, who at this time commanded the
right wing of the French army.
I have endeavored to portray, in the most exact manner possible, the vari-
ous scenes of which I was a witness, having been myself a soldier in the
"Garde Mobile" during the siege of Paris; and in painting this work I have
had the advantage of being able to reproduce some souvenirs absolutely per-
sonal. I attach, therefore, much importance to this painting, and am specially
desirous— outside of the Paris Exhibition — for permission to exhibit it in Ger-
many ,where I have been veiy particularly solicited to show my military works.
I particularly desire to be represented at this international gathering, and
I have selected naturally this my most important work. It is the first time
since the war of 1870 that French art has been exhibited in Germany, and the
presence of mlitary paintings recalling souvenirs of the late war will add a
peculiar piquancy.
I have always been very sensible of the favors shown me in America, and
I am happy to be able to testify this to you especially.
Receive, sir, the expression of my distinguished regards, etc.

ments of the landscape flooded with sunshine, and the deep forest in luminous
twilight, or nymphs with flesh of exquisite tone; and dazzled the eye with all

454 INTERIOR WITH FIGURES.
The light from a casement window at the left center falls full upon a group
of soldiers who surround a small table and are playing at cards. One man
with a pitcher in his hand stands leaning over watching the game, and another
who is standing behind the table is smoking a long clay pipe. Behind this
group is a large chimney-piece and in the shadow beyond at the end of the
room is a balcony beneath which there is another table where other soldiers
are intent upon the game. A wine cask and other objects are in the foreground

in 1855 his first oil picture, " Battle of the Alma," which was followed in 1857

wonderful facility of execution, led him into exaggerations which deprived
him of fame as an historical painter.

DUPRE, Jules. BarUzon School.
Born at Nantes, 1811; died at LTsle-Adam, 1889. One of the most original
and powerful painters of the modern French School. At twelve years of age he
was the principal decorator in his father's porcelain factory on the banks of the
Oise, "It was in the contemplation of nature, in his isolation amidst her
43
influences, that the mind of the lad was opened to her beauty, and that hei
mystery was sounded by his thought. In his hours of freedom the boy used
to wander over the fields with sketch-book and pencil. No professor inter-
posed himself between this talent in its birth and what it portrayed. What
he was ignorant of he asked but of her; what he learned was from her teaching.
At eighteen the little china painter had become a young master. At sixty, he
was the illustrious, respected, veteran of the School of 1830 — Delacroix, Rous-
seau, Diaz, Corot, Barye, Millet, Decamps, and Troyon." Medals: second

DURAND, Asher Brown. American School.
Born at South Orange, N. J., August 21, 1796; died there, 1886. He
studied engraving with his father and with Peter Maverick, whose partner
he became in 1817. His "Declaration of Independence," after Trumbull,
first brought him into prominent notice as an engraver. He was one of the
original members of the National Academy of Design, organized in 1826,
and was elected president at the resignation of Professor Morse in 1845, a
position he held until 1861. About 1835 he resolved to become a painters
and until the time of his death devoted himself to that branch of the pro-
fession. Among the better known of his earlier works are: "Harvey Birch
and Washington," "The Wrath of Peter Stuyvesant," "The Capture of
Andre," "Dance on the Battery," "The Forest Primeval," and "Franconia
Mountains."
Many of his pictures have been engraved.

DURER, Albrecht (?). German School.
Born at Nuremberg, 1471; died there, 1528. This artist, if not really
the founder of the German school, perfected the art which already existed
in his country. He was a sculptor, architect, and painter. His drawing
45
was rich in life and expression; his coloring very unequal; his nude figures
ugly and vulgar, and his love for the fantastic prevented him from becoming
what he might otherwise have been. He became a disciple of Michael Wolge-
muth, in whose atelier he remained three years. In 1490 he set out on his
travels, and in 1494 returned to Nuremberg and settled himself as a painter.
He remained there 'en years. In 1505 he went to Venice, Padua and Bo-
logna. The following year he returned to Nuremberg, where he remained till
1520, and executed an immense number of paintings, drawings, engravings,
and some carved works in boxwood and steatite. He then made a journey
into the Netherlands, was absent about a year, and returned to his native
city, never to leave it again. Although his pictures are scarce, the large Ger-
man Galleries have specimens of his work. "The Four Temperaments" are
now in the Pinakothek at Munich, this Gallery has also five large pictures
of the life of Christ. The Virgin holding the naked Child in her arms is now
in the Belvedere at Vienna, These are but a small part of the important
works of Diirer; the Berlin Gallery has several, and the Dresden Gallery four.

DIJCK, Sir Anthony (Antoon) van. Flemish School.
Born at Antwerp, 1599; died at London, 1641. The most distinguished
of Rubens' pupils. One of the many great artists whose gifts showed them-
selves almost from birth. He was the son of a glass painter. At ten he had
already begun to paint; at fifteen he had entered Rubens' studio; and at
nineteen he was himself a "master."
For five years (1620-25) he was traveling and painting in Italy, with
letters of introduction from Rubens, and on his return to Antwerp he at once
became the court painter of his time. Queens visited him in his studio, and
the nobility of three nations considered it an honor to be painted by him.
He twice visited London, in 1620 and in 1627, before he finally settled
there in 1632.
46
On his first presentation to Charles I, he obtained permission to paint
the king and queen. He was appointed painter to the court, was knighted,
and received a pension of £200. A town house was given him at Black-
friars and a country house at Eltham.
He always went magnificently dressed, had a numerous and gallant
equipage, and kept so good a table in his apartment that few princes were
more visited or better served.
For seven years Van Dyck worked at the portraits of the English aris-
tocracy with indefatigable industry. Nearly half of all his known pictures
are in England (a large collection of them was brought together at the Gros-
venor Gallery in 18S7), but in the National Gallery he is at present incom-
pletely represented. There are no pictures there either of women or of children
in both of which he excelled.
The last two years of his life were mainly spent in traveling with his
young wife, the granddaughter of Lord Ruthven. He died when only forty-
two, and was buried in the old Church of St. Paul's.
Van Dyck was essentially the painter of princes, distinguished by the
indelible mark of courtly grace and refinement which he gave to all his sitters.

roses. Beneath the group far away under the horizon are vapory indica-
tions of the plague stricken city. An early work painted under Venetian in-

EYCK, Jan van. (?) Flemish School.

1440. The brothers Hubert and Jan van Eyck are distinguished as being
the inventors (or improvers) of Oil Painting. The chief credit is usually

262 VIRGIN AND CHILD.
The Virgin, dressed in a long scarlet robe, stands in a niche of richly
sculptured gothic architecture, looking tenderly down upon the Child which
she holds against her breast. On a baldachin over her head is inscribed,
"DOMUS DEI EST_ET PORTA CEL1;" beneath is "IPSA EST QUAM
PREPARAVIT DOMS FILIO DNI MEI." King of Holland sale, 1850.
Exhibited at Manchester, 1857, and at the Royal Academy in 1871, by A. J.
Beresford Hope. Described in Waagen Art Treasures, IV, 190.
The figures of the Virgin and Child are copied from a signed picture by Jan van Eyck, the
" Virgin by a Fountain," at Antwerp. The architectural background is similar to that in one
of Hubert van Eyck's miniatures at Turin (now destroyed). Everything, therefore, points to
the picture being done in Jun van Eyck's studio by a close follower.

Born at Reus, Catalonia, Spain, 1841; died at Rome, 1874. His
parents were poor. Drawing ' was his absorbing passion. In 1847 he
attended a public course in drawing in his native, town. At 12 years of age
he began the study of painting, and while so engaged he lost both of his
parents, which intensified his unfortunate lot. In 1857 he won the Prix
de Rome from Spain, and from that time he quickly rose to fame. His career
was as brilliant as it was short. In 1867, already celebrated among painters,
he married M'lle Cecilia de Madrazo, the sister of the celebrated artist Ray-

GHIRLANDAJO (in Florentine dialect, Grillandajo)? (Real
name, Domenico di Tommaso Curradi di Doffo Bigordi.)
Florentine School.
Born at Florence, 1449; died there, 1494. It is said that his father
was a goldsmith, who made such exquisite garlands for the hair that he
was called Ghirlandajo (the garland-twiner), which name descended to hig
children. Vasari says he studied under Fra Bartolommeo. He became a
mosaic-worker and celebrated painter. He introduced in his picture the por-
58
craits of celebrated and important personages of his time, and was original in
many ways. His life is a landmark in the history of Florentine art. In the
technicalities of fresco painting he excelled. His works are highly finished,
and may be seen in the Louvre; six pictures in the Berlin Museum, and others
in the Dresden, Munich and National Galleries. Ghirlandajo was the master
of Michelangelo.

GOYA Y LUCIENTES, Francisco Jose de. Spanish School
Born at Fuendetodos (Aragon) 1746; died at Bordeaux 1828. Studied
first under Jose Luxan Martinez and, after, some years in Rome. In 1774 re-
turned to Spain and settled in Madrid. Painted pictures of religious subjects
and portraits, and found continual employment among the nobility; but his
chief excellence was that of a satirist with the pencil. He may be called the
Hogarth in Spain. He parodied the religious pictures and painted priests in
the form of asses and apes, and was never weary of making the Hierosnymite
and Franciscan friars ridiculous. He painted with dashing boldness, some-
times executing an entire piece with his palette knife and put in the delicate
touches of sentiment with his thumb.

GREUZE, Jean-Baptiste. French School.
Bom at Tournus, near Macon, August 21, 1725; died at the Louvre, in
Paris, March 21, 1805. Genre and portrait painter. Pupil at Lyons of
Gromdon; he studied afterwards in the Academy at Paris and at Rome. His
first picture, " A Father Explaining the Bible to His Children," seemed to
exceed anything that was expected of Greuze. He was elected an agree or
Associate of the French Academy of Painting, in 1755, when his picture,
"L'Aveugle trompe," was exhibited, and in the same year he went to Italy
with the Abbe Gougenot. In 1761 his " L'Accordee de Village" (Louvre)
excited the greatest enthusiasm. Angry at being received into the Academy
(1769) as a genre and not as a history painter, Greuze retired for a time to

hibited at the Salons of 1755, 1757, 1759, 1761, 1763, 1765, 1769, 1800, 1801,
1804. He amassed a large fortune, but lost it during the Revolution. Neg-
lected by the public, which admired only the new school of David, Greuze passed
his last years in misery and regret. His wife, who was Mile. Barbuty, whose
charming face appears in so many of his pictures, was an extravagant and
worthless woman, from whom he was separated long before his death.

bright colors give spirit and sparkling effect.

HALS, Frans (The Elder), hwm iscnoc^.
Born at Antwerp (?) 1584 (?), (exact date not known); buried at Haarlem,
1st of September, 1666 (confirmed by Dr. Bredius, July, 1907). Pupil of Carel
(Karl) Van Mander. One of the merriest and brightest-witted of all the Dutch
portrait painters. He was the founder of a National style, and was one of the
greatest masters in portraiture of his own or of any time. Of the host of dis-
tinguished painters in that branch of art who practised in the Netherlands ia
65
the first half of the XVII century, he stands forth as the first — Rembrandt only
excepted, His unusual talent excited the admiration of Van Dijck. He was
twice married, and left four sons, all painters. He led an irregular and improvi-
dent life, but he left as a legacy to the world an imperishable name. His flesh
coloring is vital; handling broad, masterly, and vigorous. He painted large pic-
tures of archers and civic guards. The best of these may be seen at Haarlem
in the Hotel-de-Ville. In an apartment of the Oude Man Huys, a benevolent
institution, there are two other fine works of this class. The Museums at
Amsterdam have 7 pictures by him, The Hague 2, the Louvre 1, the Na-
tional Gallery 2.

Born at Plymouth, 1786; died at London, 1846. Student at the Royal
Academy in 1805; exhibited in 1809 his "Dentatus Murdered by His Own
Soldiers," but, dissatisfied with the position assigned it, refused to contrib-
ute any more. After painting portraits in Plymouth, he won a considerable
reputation in 1814 by his ! ' Judgment of Solomon." In 1820 he produced
'Christ's Triumphant Entry into Jerusalem," the exhibition of which, in
London, brought him three thousand guineas; but it procured him no com-
missions, and was finally sold for two hundred and forty pounds and sent
to America. It is now in Cincinnati. Though in great pecuniary difficulties,
and several times in the debtors' prison, he still clung to the belief that he
was the great historical painter o the age, and that in time his efforts would
be appreciated. But he was at last overwhelmed by his disappointments
and troubles and committed suicide. Haydon's lectures on Paintings were
published in 1844-46, and his life, from his autobiography and journals,
edited and compiled by Tom Taylor, in 1853.

HELLQUIST, C. G. Swedish School.
Born at Kungsor, 1851 ; died in the Bavarian Highlands, Nov. 20, 1890.
He was the son of a poor shoemaker at Kungsor, on Lake Malar. In the
eleventh year of his age he was sent to Stockholm and apprenticed to a scene
painter, Ahlgrenson, and in 1864 entered a class in the Royal Academy, sup-
porting himself by illustrating while pursuing his studies; meanwhile he
painted several pictures representing mythological and historical subjects,
such as "Asa Thor's Contest with the Giants," "The Finding of Moses,"
and "The Finding of the Body of Gustavus Adolphus." In 1875, for his
painting "Gustavus Vasa Discovers the Treason of the Bishops," he received
the Academical prize, the great medal and a traveling stipend extending
over five years. He made a journey through Sweden, Norway, and Goth-
land, on foot, filling his sketch-book with materials for future use. He
then visited Paris and the principal cities of Germany, settling down at
Munich as the pupil of Wilhelm Diez. Returning to Paris, he painted im-
portant works which were exhibited at the Munich International Exhibition
of 1879. In all of his historical and genre pictures he adhered to the style
and mannerisms illustrated in the example of his work here exhibited.

head, and a mitre of birch-bark on Knut's, mounted them on starving horse*
and brought them through Upsala to Stockholm in a Shrove-tide procession

of his finest works, and is considered superior to the large picture, which is

HOGARTH, William. English School.
Born at London, 1697; died there, 1764. He was apprenticed at an
early age to a silver plate engraver, and when twenty-three years old set
up in business on his own account. Amongst other works of the kind he
engraved twelve plates for Butler's "Hudibras." He entered the school of
Sir James Thornhill, Serjeant-painter to the king, whose daughter he married
clandestinely in 1729. The work which first established his fame was the
series of the "Harlot's Progress," which was immediately followed by the
"Rake's Progress," now in the Soane Museum. These works are similar in
scope and design to the "Marriage a la Mode" series purchased from the
Angerstein collection by the National Gallery, London, 1824. The engrav-
ings made by Hogarth from these pictures brought him both money and
fame.

HOLBEIN, Hans (the Younger). (?) German School.
Born at Augsburg, probably in the year 1497; died at London ^ 1543.
A drawing of the year 1509 is the earliest known work of this paintei.
He was instructed by his father. About 1516 he removed to Basle,, The
74
works which have been ascribed to him in that city are innumerable. In
1517 he was called to Lucerne to decorate a house, which was still in existence
in 1824; in 1519 he entered the Guild of Painters at Basle, and formed his
friendship with Boniface Amerbach. Holbein's portrait of this friend is one
of his very best; the " Fountain of Life," now at Lisbon, in the palace of the
King of Portugal, was also painted this year. In 1521 he decorated the
Rathaiis or Town Hall. It was at this time that he painted a portrait of
Erasmus; a life-size picture of "Christ lying in the Tomb," and "Holbein's
wife and children," representing Franz, the son of the widow Schmid, whom
he married, and his own son Philip. The mother is a coarse-looking, un-
attractive woman. It is said that Holbein was driven from Basle by his
wife's temper, but that he contributed to her support at all times.
His "Madonna," at Darmstadt (the better known copy of which is at
Dresden), is one of the great religious pictures of the world. Soon after its
completion Holbein went to England, bearing a letter of introduction from
Erasmus to Sir Thomas More, who at once received him with kindness.
1527 was the year in which Henry VIII fell in love with Anne Boleyn. This
was the first year of Holbein's occupation in England, but he does not appear
to have entered the King's service until after 1530. In the meantime he
painted Sir Thomas More's family and friends, among them, Archbishop
Warham and Sir Henry Gilford both fine and important pictures. In 1528
he painted Sir Thomas and John Godsalve, on the same panel, now at Dresden;
and the astronomer, Kratzer, now in the Louvre. Holbein returned to
Basle in 1530, and completed the frescos in the Town House. This being
done, he returned to England. The superb portrait of George Gyzen, at
Berlin, was painted in 1532. After 1533 Holbein rarely dated his pictures,
and there is no authentic portrait by him of Anne Boleyn, or her daughter,
the Princess Elizabeth, although Holbein painted many portraits of the
Royal family.
231 PORTRAIT OF ARCHBISHOP CRANMER.
Wearing a long forked beard, and clad in a black fur-trimmed gown,
with a black cap on his head, he is standing behind a table covered with
green cloth, on which are an hour glass, a book, and a sheet of paper on which
is inscribed in finely formed characters the Latin version of the fifth chapter
of 2d Corinthians. On the seal is a coat-of-arms, with a Bishop's or Arch-
bishop's crozier; behind it, the armorial bearings, although somewhat indis-
tinct from the small size of the seal, are obviously those of Cranmer, impaling
the Episcopal Arms of the See of Canterbury. The date, 1539, is painted
in the left-hand lower corner of the picture. From the collection of Mr.
Jesse of Bathofarn Park, Ruthin, North Wales.

HONDIUS, Abraham. Dutch School
Bom at Rotterdam, before 1638; died at London, 1695. He lived manj
years in England. His favorite subjects were dogs. He acquired a good
reputation, but his pictures are open to grave criticism. His drawing is
incorrect, and his color not pleasing. His very rare etchings do him more
honor as an artist than his paintings.
85 WILD BOAR HUNTING.
Beneath a clear sky in a thickly wooded landscape a wild boar at the
end of the chase is making its last effort to escape. The huntsmen, one
mounted, the other afoot, are urging the pack of hounds which surround
their victim to complete their task; two of the hounds have been killed and
lie dead at the feet of the boar.

Genre painter. Formed himself under the influence of Karel Fabritius and
Rembrandt. Worked at Delft, where he entered the Guild in 1655, perhaps
also at Haarlem.
One of the most original artists of the Dutch School. He painted court-
yard scenes and interiors with figures; in the latter he usually represented
two rooms, one of which was flooded with sunlight; in these effects he is
unequaled.

HOOGSTRATEN, Samuel van. Dutch School
Born at Dordrecht, 1627; died there, 1678. He was a pupil of his father,
Theodore van Hoogstraaten, and afterwards of Rembrandt, at Amsterdam.
He occasionally painted landscapes and still-life, but his greatest successes
were in portraits, which he at first executed in the dark and vigorous style
of Rembrandt, but afterwards changed to a more clear and agreeable manner,
much to the advantage of his immediate popularity, but not of his permanent
fame.

1895. Studied in the Cork School of Design. Came to New York in 1863,
and entered the school of the N.A.D. In 1874 went to Paris, where he
studied under Cabanel, returning to the United States in 1880. Elected
A.N.A. 1881; N.A. in 1882. He was also a member of the Philadelphia
Society of Artists, American Water Color, American Artists' Societies, and
the Artists' Fund. Mr. Hovenden was run over and instantly killed by a
railway train while he was endeavoring to save a child, at the town of Ply-
mouth Meeting, Pa., where he lived.
193 LAST MOMENTS OF JOHN BROWN.
A distinguished champion of liberty; born at Torrington, Conn., in May,
1800. His father removed to Ohio in 1805. From the age of fifteen to twenty
he worked at the trade of tanner and currier. According to Redpath, he con-
ceived in 1839 the idea of becoming a liberator of the Southern slaves. He
was a devout member of the Congregational Church, and a man of strict moral
character, unflinching courage, and intense earnestness. He emigrated to
Kansas in 1855, where he took an active part in the contest with the pro-
slavery party. In August, 1S56, he gained some advantages at Ossawatomie
over a band of Missourians who had invaded Kansas, and were ten times more
numerous than his own company. In May, 1859, he called a secret convention
of the friends of freedom, which met at Chatham, in Canada, organized an
invasion of Virginia for the purpose of liberating the slaves, and adopted a con-
stitution. In the following July he rented a farmhouse about six miles from
Harper's Ferry, and collected there a supply of pikes, guns, etc. On the night
of October 16, 1859, aided by about twenty men, he surprised Harper's Ferry,
seized the arsenal and armory, and took over forty prisoners. About noon on
the 17th the party of Brown was attacked by the Virginia militia. After two
of his sons and nearly all of his men had been killed, and he himself had been
wounded in several places, he was captured. "Enemies and friends," says
Redpath, "were equally amazed at the carriage and sayings of the wounded
warrior." He was tried in November, and hung at Charleston, Virginia, on
the 2d of December, 1859. He met his death with serene composure. He was
twice married, and had twenty children.

79
the social problems of the day. Member of the Amsterdam and Philadelphia
Academies. Visited America in 1874-75. He was one of the most active

629 THE POACHER'S DEATH.
The wounded poacher and his son are in the immediate foreground
making a superhuman effort to reach their cabin which is built in the side
of a limestone ledge. The terrified son with his right arm supporting his
father and his left extended to the latch of the door is straining every nerve
and muscle to drag his father to safety; but the waning strength, pallid face
and glassy eyes denote a fatal wound. The father presses his right hand
to the back of his neck where the bullet entered, and with his left grasps the
shoulder of his son for support. Upon a white horse, at the edge of the
wood, with the game-keeper who fired the fatal shot, is the lord of the estate.
A large hound is springing up in a field of ripe grain, and nearby lie a dead
boar and the poacher's gun.

Born at Haarlem, 1646; died at Amsterdam, 1733. He studied under
Thomas Wijck, but especially under Van der Meulen at Paris. Visited Rome
and returned to Holland in 1670. He painted landscapes, hunts, and battle
pieces. The latter are his best works. About 1708 he received commissions
from Duke Eugene de Savoie, and an excellent picture of Hendrik Casimir II,
Prince of Nassau, on horseback, is in The Hague Gallery; others are in the
Louvre and Amsterdam Museums. His chef-d'auvre, the "Siege of Namur,"
is in the Vienna Gallery. He had good inventive powers, drew correctly,
and had facility of execution, but his color was not equal to his other qualities.
4 REPOSE AFTER THE HUNT.
There is a broad open landscape with small trees. The spoils of the
chase lie in the immediate foreground, and standing near by are three horses
with a groom at their heads; one is white, the others dark bay. Beyond at
the left are a group of merry people and a couple leading off in a dance ; near
these are two mounted hunters, a coach, and a table where refreshments are
being served. At the right are other figures and in the middle distance is a
field of ripe grain being harvested. Beyond this are the rolling hills and
farm4ands; above is a bright blue sky with light floating clouds.

53 A SIEGE.
Beneath a tree at the right in front of a tent from which a banner is
floating, are some horsemen, four of whom are mounted, while three others
are in the act of mounting. One soldier is sounding his trumpet, another
beats the kettle drums, a third standing vigorously sounds his horn, while
the fourth listlessly holds his horn in his lap. A white horse is in the center
of the group. At the left a mother sits nursing her babe, while two men at
a cask are drinking wine, and a third stands near by smoking a long clay pipe.
Tents and portions of an army lead off into the middle ground, and from
$0
out the distant smoke of battle rises a hMl with vapory indications of a ram-
part and outlying forts.

202 "MERCY'S DREAM."
"Christiana said to Mercy: — -What was the matter that you did laugh
in your sleep to-night? I suppose you were in a dream.
"Mercy — I was a-dreamed that I sat all alone in a solitary place, and
was bemoaning of the hardness of my heart .... Methought I looked
up, and saw one coming with wings towards me. So he came directly to me,
and said, 'Mercy, what aileth thee?' Now when he had heard me make
my complaint, he said, ' Peace be to thee '; . . . . and he put a beautiful
crown upon my head. Then he took me by the hand, and said, 'Mercy,
come after me.' So he went up, and I followed, till we came to a golden
Gate. Then he knocked; and when they within had opened, the Man went
in, and I followed him up to a throne upon which One sat; and he said to me,
' Welcome, daughter.' The place looked bright and twinkling like stars, or
rather like the sun. . . ." — (Bwiyan's Pilgrim's Progress.)

folded over the forefinger of the left hand. The sturdy weather-beaten arms
bare to the elbows and the warm violet gray sleeves melt into the subdued
tone of the white 'kerchief which covers her bosom. The skirt is black and
her bare feet are thrust into a pair of low wooden shoes. On a table at the
right is a potted plant, and at the left are a large wicker basket, a workbox

teenth century. In 1S67, his "Call To Arms" was purchased by Princess

ferent style in Art, painting such subjects as the "Young Woman with the
Sword," " Reverie," " The First Arrival." "The Minuet," 1880, was purchased

Chatillon-sur-Saone, Vosges. Born in 1855. Pupil of Cabanel and
of J. P. Laurens. Chevalier, Legion of Honor. A painter of landscape,
mostly of the Vosges district, where he was born. In the earlier works of
Jan-Monchablon there is a subtle delicacy of treatment and a completeness of
finish, in which realism is carried to its extremest point; but in his more
recent productions he retains his deep feeling for nature, and aims at a broader
technique, a more intense coloring, and is striving to attain those qualities
which give to the pictures of the old Dutch masters their peculiar charm.

Born at Antwerp, 1593; died there, 1678. Pupil of Adam Van Noort,
as was Rubens, he became the follower and half assistant of the latter. He
married early in life the daughter of Van Noort, and never visited Italy.
He was a master of great power. He painted a variety of subjects.
Many of his sacred pictures are in the churches of Flanders and Brabant
hut they are not his best works. His pictures vary much, according as he
was interested or not in his subject. His color was fine, his impasto some-
what unequal, but he excelled in depth of chiaroscuro, and a " certain
golden glow," in which he sometimes surpassed even Rubens. The " Ho1"
Family," in this Gallery, is one of his best sacred pictures.
47 THE VISIT OF ST. JOHN TO THE INFANT JESUS.
In the center of the picture, with one foot resting upon the globe and
the other upon the head of a serpent, which encircles the world, stands the
Child Christ, supported by Mary, who extends her right hand to the infant
St. John, who is seated upon the back of a lamb. St. Joseph, with one hand
resting lightly over the back of a wicker chair, in which is seated St. Anne,
leans gently forward in rapt attention. St. Elisabeth, a black mantle cover-
ing her head and draping her figure, supports the infant St. John, and back of
this group stands St. Zacharias and the guardian angle with outspread wings.

450 CRUSADERS BEFORE JERUSALEM.
_ The intention of the artist was to express symbolically the idea tha*
Christianity has become the triumphant religion of the universe. In the
middle and extreme distance can be seen the city of Jerusalem with its domes
and palaces, the crusaders' coveted goal; somewhat removed, some soldiers,
a group of eminent knights, ecclesiastics, bishops, and crusade preachers
contemplate the city from a hill-top; on another hill to the right can be seen
the army of crusaders commanded by Godfrey of Bouillon, who holds uplifted
in both hands a crown, symbol of the divine right of the Kings of Jerusalem;
near him are Boemond and Tancredi, soldiers who had distinguished them-
selves in the memorable battle the crusaders fought with the Saracens. The
ground is covered with the enemy's dead. On the foreground in the middle
is Peter of Amiens on his knees, with eyes turned towards the Holy City,
and offering to God prayers of thanksgiving. Behind him a group of penitents
are lying on the ground or scourging themselves; above, borne on clouds,
is seen the divine apparition of the Redeemer accompanied by the Holy
Virgin, and surrounded by the Saints and Martyrs. Godfrey of Bouillon,
Hearing on his bead a crown of thorns, offers the crown of the Holy Land to
the Saviour, the_ real King of Jerusalem. Near Peter of Amiens is a group
of fervent psalmists of the Christian faith, followed by the knights in magni-
ficent armor. The troubadour of the middle ages, so closely associated
with romances of the crusaders, here also finds his place. The beautiful
Armida, borne seated on a litter draped with laurel branches, is carried by
Moors, while her knight, Rinaldo, leads the way to the city, as, pious and
beautiful, she lifts her gaze to the heavenly apparition.

LAWRENCE, Sir Thomas, P.R.A. English School.'
Born at Bristol, 1769. Died at London, 1830. He early distinguished
himself for his ability in drawing. His father was landlord of the Black Bear
Inn, Devizes, and the first efforts of the young painter which attracted notice
were some portraits in chalk of his father's customers. At the early age of
ten years he set up as a portrait painter in crayons, at Oxford; but he soon
afterwards ventured to take a house at Bath, where he immediately met
with much employment and extraordinary success. In his seventeenth yeai
he commenced oil painting; in 1787, twelve months afterwards, he settled
in London, and entered himself as a student in the Royal Academy. His
success in London was as great as it had been in the Provinces. In" 1791.
though under the age required by the laws (twenty-four), he was elected an
associate of the Academy, and after the death of Sir Joshua Reynolds, in the
following year, he succeeded him as painter to the King. He painted at
this time, in his twenty-third year, the portraits o^ the King and Queen,
which were presented by Lord Macartney to the Emperor of China. In 1794,
he was elected a Royal Academician; he was knighted by the Prince Regent
in 1815; and at the death- of Benjamin West, in 1S20, he was unanimously
elected president of the Academy. From the time of his election as a mem-
ber of the Academy, to his death, Sir Thomas's career as a portrait painter
was unrivaled; he contributed, from 1787 to 1830, inclusive, 311 pictures
to the exhibitions of the Royal Academy. He died in London, at his house
in Russell Square, January 7, 1S30. He was never married. Shortly after
his death, a selection of ninety-one of his works was exhibited at the British
Institution.. He was a member of St. Luke at Rome, and of many other
foreign academies; and in 1826 he was created a Chevalier of the Legion
of Honor.

an A.R.A. in 1821, and R.A. in 1826. In 1833 he accepted the professorship
of drawing at West Point, but held the position only a few months. Return-
ing to England, he painted two historical pieces for the Queen, "The Coro-
nation," 1838, and "The Baptism of the Princess Royal." He was professor
of painting at the Royal Academy from 1847 to 1852.

country after the close of the Revolution and settled in New York, where
his son was born and died He was apprenticed to a printer, but subsequently

the author of many professional works and " Old New York, or Reminiscenses
of Sixty Years," and was looked upon as an oracle in matters relating to his
native city.

186 WASHINGTON CROSSING THE DELAWARE.
"December 25, 1776, the Commander-in-chief's headquarters were at
Newtown, a little village on a small branch of the Neshaming, two miles north-
east from Bristol. There were about 1,500 Hessians and a troop of British
light horse at Trenton ; these Washington determined to surprise. The posts
nt Mount Holly, Burlington, Black Horse, and Bordentown were to be at-
tacked, at the same time, by the Pennsylvania militia under Generals Cad-
wallader and Ewing, the former to cross near Bristol, the latter below Trenton
Falls; while Washington leading the main body ot the Continental troops
(in all about 2,400 men, and twenty pieces of artillery) was to march down
upon the enemy at Trenton. Christmas night was selected by Washington
for the execution of his enterprise. The cold weather of the twenty-four
104
hours preceding put serious obstacles in the way. The river was so full of
floating ice that at first it was doubtful whether a crossing could be effected
at all. A storm of sleet and snow had just commenced, and the night
became excessively dark and dreary. The perilous voyage began early in
the evening in boats and bateaux, but it was nearly four in the morning
before the little army was mustered on the Jersey shore. The victory of the
Americans at Trenton was complete."

LEYDEN, Lucas van. (Real name Lucas Huygensz or
Lucas Jacobsz.) Dutch School.
Born at Leyden in 1494; died there, 1533. Pupil of his father Hugo
Jacob, and of Cornelis Enghelbrechtsen. He was remarkably precocious,
having etched plates from his own designs at the age of 8 or 9 years; at
12 to 14 he produced works that are stiU highly esteemed. A warm friend-
ship existed between him and Albert Diirer, which was never interrupted
by professional jealousy. He painted in oil, distemper, and on glass, suc-
ceeding equally well in historical subjects, landscape, and portraits. His en-
gravings on copper gave him a rank besides his great contemporaries, Diirer
and Marcantonio.
250 CHRIST PRESENTED TO THE PEOPLE.
In a public square of the city of Jerusalem is a raised scaffold or platform,
on which the Saviour is seen in a group of six persons, two of whom draw aside
the purple robe and show Him to the people. In the foreground, groups of
persons in richly colored costumes fill the street below, witnessing and com-
menting on the scene. The windows of the houses which surround the square
are filled with spectators. It was formerly in the possession of Baron Caron-
delet, Spanish Governor of the province of Louisiana, and was purchased from
a descendant of the family. It would seem from an ancient document accom-
panying the picture that it was from the sale of the Prince de Conti, and that it
is the original of the picture in the Belvedere Gallery, Vienna, which in the old
catalogues was attributed to this artist, and in the more recent catalogues is
called a Copy. There is an old engraving of this picture by Lucas van Leyden
himself, dated 1510.

257 JOSEPH'S COAT.
This is one of a series of tempera paintings on linen, illustrating the history
of Joseph, which was seen by Van Mander in a house at Delft, as is specially
recorded by him in his life of the Dutch Master ('Het Leven der 'Schilderi=,
etc.). He there notes the injury to the set of decorative canvases as being
105
roused by the damp atmosphere of Holland. This picture is of peculiar
interest, as being one of the very few among his paintings that are authenti-
cated by documentary evidence.
Jacob, the Ruler, and father of Joseph, with a sceptre in his right hand is
seated in an open court beneath a red canopy. Surrounded by soldiers, coun-
cilors, and friends, he is receiving the news of Joseph's death. Standing before
him is one of the brothers the blood-stained coat of many colors, "And he
knew it, and said, It is my son's coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph
is without doubt rent in pieces." The impressive and ornate character of the
surrounding architecture conveys the feeling of royal association rather than
that of classic accuracy.
This picture belong? 1 in 1766 to Lord Methuen., and in 1886 passed from
Lord Methuen's collection at Corsham House, into that of Mr. Marquand, of
New York. Mentioned in The English Connoisseur, London, 1766, II, 36, and
formerly catalogued under the title of "Our Saviour carried before Pontius
Pilate."

the Royal Scottish Academy in Edinburgh. Afterwards he spent some years
in the successful practice of his profession in England, coming to America in
1843, settling in New York. He excelled in painting cabinet portraits in oil,
and his ability was soon recognized. Added to his facilty in securing a like-
ness, he finished his pictures with extreme delicacy, without in the least rob-
bing them of their force and character. He painted Henry Clay and Daniel
Webster. In 1839 the National Academy of Design awarded him the medal
offered for the best specimen of portrait painting exhibited.

100 PORTRAIT OF COLONEL POPHAM.
Cabinet size, three-quarters length, sitting, figure to the left of the spec-
tator, face nearly front with both hands resting on the arms of the chair, and an
open book on the table.
Major William Popham was born in Ireland, 1752, and came to America
in 1761. He entered the U. S. Army when the revolution broke out, accepted
a commission and rendered distinguished services at the battles of Long Island
and White Plains, and afterward acted as aid to General Clinton, remaining in
the army until the close of the war. At the age of ninety-two he was elected
President of the Cincinnati Society in place of the late General Morgan Lewis.
At that time he was the only living officer of Washington's army which had
been disbanded and dismissed without pay, or emolument of any kind, the
army then lying in detachments in the vicinity of Fishkill, Newburgh, New
Windsor and West Point, with headquarters at New Windsor.

Born at Hereford, 1814; died at London, 1873. History painter.
He studied at the Beaux-Arts and also under Paul Delaroche; afterwards he
became a pupil of the Royal Academy, London. His works are important on
account of their subject and the scale on which they are painted, rather than
for their originality. Many of his pictures have been engraved.
167 LORD NELSON IN THE CABIN OF THE "VICTORY."
In the full dress of an English Admiral, he is seated in a chair in front of
his desk in an attitude of deep thought, his bowed head resting upon his closed

Born at Dordrecht, 1632; died at Amsterdam, 1G93. Pupil of Rem-

coloring. In the latter years of his life he seems to have become chiefly a por-

five, and the Berlin Gallery, the Uffizi, and the Van der Hoop Collection have
each one of his pictures, but most of them are in private collections. Smith
mentions only forty-five of his works in all.

545 V ATTENTAT D'ANAGNI.
Boniface VIII, a native of Anagni, was elected Pope in 1294. Philip the
Fair, of France, resisted his authority in spiritual matters, and, aided by
Italian enemies of the Pope, compelled him to take refuge in his native town.
Hither he was pursued by Sciarra Colonna, at that time head of the most cele-
brated and powerful of the Roman aristocratic families. The picture repre-
sents the moment when Boniface says to his assailants, " Here is my neck; here
is my head; strike! but I will die Pope." Boniface was thrown into prison,
and though liberated by the people of Anagni, died within a month.

forest bordering a lake. She stands in flowing crimson drapery with a dart
poised in her right hand ready to hurl at a fleeing stag who has plunged into
the water. By her side is a nymph in the act of drawing a bow, and at her
right crowding the bank are five others in hot pursuit of the game, one of
whom is holding by a leash two straining hounds. In the immediate fore-
ground are a group of bathers who have been surprised and startled by the
incident; one has caught the stag by its horns, another with uplifted hands
pleads for its life, and a swan at the left with outspread wings and violent
action resents the intrusion of the hounds.

MARATTA, Carlo. Roman School.
Born at Camerano, 1625; died at Rome, 1713. (Called also Carluccio
dalle Madonne, from the large number of Madonna pictures that he painted.)
Was an imitator of Raphael, and for nearly half a century the most eminent
painter in Rome. The portrait of a Pope or Cardinal should have come kindly
to him, for he was in the service of several Popes, and was appointed Superin-
tendent of the Vatican Chambers by Innocent XI. Clement XI entrusted to
him the complete restoration of the frescos of Raphael, and gave him the
insignia of the " Order of Christ" for his labor upon them. He was President
of the Academy of St. Luke at the time of his death.

the porcelain works as a decorator, and through whose influence he began the
study of nature, and subsequently abandoned the pottery at Sevres for a
studio in Paris. The influence of Troyon is evident in all of Van Marcke's
earlier works. But he was a consummate draughtsman, and soon developed
a style of his own, displaying marked ability and freedom in composition,
individuality of touch, and a quality of color differing from that of his mas-
ter. His works sparkle with sunlight, and beneath the showery skies there is
a freshness of verdure replete with the charm of midsummer days. Medals :

538 "FRIEDLAND, 1807."
Extract from the Artist's Letter to Mr. A. T. Stewart, dated January 27th, 1876
" I did not intend to paint a battle — I wanted to paint Napoleon at the
zenith of his glory; I wanted to paint the love, the adoration of the soldiers
for the great Captain in whom they had faith, and for whom they were readj
to die.
" I previously had represented, in the picture ' 1814,' the heartrending end
of the Imperial Dream — those men only recently intoxicated with glory, now
shown exhausted, and no longer believing in their invincible chief. My
palette then did not have colors sad enough for the purpose; but to-day, in
' Friedland, 1807,' wishing everything to appear brilliant at this triumphant
moment, it seemed to me I was unable to find colors sufficiently dazzling. No
shade should be upon the Imperial face, to take from him the epic character I
wished to give him. The battle, already commenced, was necessary to add to
the enthusiasm of the soldiers, and make the subject stand forth, but not to
diminish it by saddening details. All such shadows I avoided, and presented
nothing but a dismounted cannon, and some growing wheat which would
never ripen.
" This was enough.
" The men and the Emperor are in the presence of each other. The soldiers
o.ry to him that they are his, and the impressive Chief, whose Imperial will
directs the masses that move around, salutes his devoted army. He and they
plainly comprehend each other, and absolute confidence is expressed in every
face.
" Such was the idea as it leaped from my brain the first instant when I em-
bodied the picture in thought; and which, in spite of the long time I have
taken to put it on canvas, has always remained with me so clear and plain that
I have never in any manner modified it."
" Friedland, 1807" was sold at auction at the sale of the Stewart Collec-
tion; March 25, 1887, and purchased by Judge Henry Hilton for $66,000, and
by him given to the Museum in 1887.
Napoleon mounted on his famous white horse and surrounded by his
generals and aides is upon a slight eminence in the center of the picture. In
wild enthusiasm the Cuirassiers are charging before him through a field of
unripe wheat, every soldier rising in his stirrups and shouting "Vive l'Em-
pereur" as he raises his sword flashing in the light of a midday sun. The bat-
tle rages in the distance and above is a clear blue sky with light floating clouds.

easel; his right arm is resting across his knee; and in his left hand he holds a
large straw hat. The other stands with his figure thrown back and the head

Born at Leyden, towards 1630; died at Amsterdam, 1667. The gentleman-
ly portrait of this artist, now in the Queen of England's collection, represents
him to have been a man of a naturally delicate frame and of a sensitive mind ; he
unquestionably formed his style from the study of works by such distinguished
men as Gerard Dou, Frans Van Mieris, Terburg, and Jan Steen, who were all
superior to him in invention and the delineation of character; but Metsu
obtained a grace of expression and an elegance in demeanor which left him
without a rival in the old Dutch School.

Born, according to the Royal Museum of Belgium, at Louvain, Belgium,
1466; died at Antwerp, 1530; the National Gallery and the Louvre have

was a blacksmith, and, it is said, became a painter for the sake of an artist's
daughter, whom he loved, and whose father was determined she should
marry none but a painter. Metsys, the first of the great Antwerp painters,
was the last who remained faithful to the traditions of the early Flemish
School. His most important work was an altar-piece in three parts, now in
the Museum of Antwerp. "The Misers," at Windsor Castle, is a notable work
by this Master. His pictures are seen in all large European Galleries. He
is buried in front of the Cathedral in Antwerp, and the immediate spot is
marked with the simple inscription, "M. Q. M., obiit 1529."

MORONI, Giovanni Battista. Venetian School. Berenson attributes
this picture to Savoldo.
Born at Bondio, near Albino, Province of Bergamo, about 1520; died at
Bergamo, 1578. Pupil of Alessandro Bonvicino called II Moretto. Giovanni
Battista Moroni was a painter without honor in . his own country, and when
the people from Bergamo came to Titian to be painted, he used to refer them
to their own countryman. No better face painter, he would tell them, ex-
isted. Moroni was not a poet in the true sense of the word, but a consum-
mate painter. Yet, now and then, he surpassed himself and pierced the
surface till he reached the soul of the sitter.

MOSTERT (or Mostaert), Jan. Dutch School.
Born at Haarlem, 1474; died there, 1555. • Pupil of Jacob Janszen van
Haarlem. He was for eighteen years painter to Margaret of Austria, Regent of
the Netherlands, and during that period resided at the Court, to which he
was attached also as a Gentleman. Mostert paid much attention to landscape
and was also a good portrait painter; his ecclesiastical works have mostly per-
ished, but a very delicate picture ascribed to him of the Virgin, with smaller
representations of her seven sorrows, is still preserved in the church of Notre-
Dame at Bruges, but no known picture bears the signature of Mostert. The
Antwerp Museum has three, the Vienna & Brussels Galleries have one each,
and the Old Pinakothek, Munich, has three pictures by this artist. The
National Gallery in London has a "Virgin and Child in a Garden" conjectur-
ally assigned to him, as is the" Ecce Homo — Mater Dolorosa" in this Museum.
85 A ECCE HOMO— MATER DOLOROSA.
Life-size, three-quarter length. Both figures are standing in a highly
ornate Gothic window with a double arch. The Saviour is at the left, with
the crown of thorns pressed upon His brow; from which the blood trickles
down over His pale face, which is profoundly eloquent in its expression of
resignation. His hands are bound with a cord, and in the right He holds
the reed. A dark green mantle, tied in a knot at the breast, covers the
shoulders and falls at each side of the figure. The sorrowing Mother is at
the right with bowed head, and hands across her breast; the delicate pale
face, with its exquisite expression of the most profound grief, is framed in a
white head-dress severe in its lines but chaste and pure in color. A dark
green mantle falls from the head and envelopes Her figure. In the back-
ground are highly ornate buildings which, with a distant hill and blue moun-
tains, are seen beneath the arch of the window. A scourge is attached to the
marble column which separates the figures.

and his tiny craft. The tree in the foreground at the left, majestic in its pro-
portions, has abundant leafy foliage which reaches out to catch the fading
128
light. Two huntsmen, one sitting, the other standing with his gun at resV
are in the immediate foreground of the picture.

PEALE, Charles Willson. American School.
Born at "St. Paul's Parish," in Queen Anne County, Eastern Shore of
Maryland, April 15, 1741, and, while an infant, was taken by his parents to
Chestertown, Md. ; died at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 1827. Pupil of Benjamin
West. To Peale belongs the honor of having painted more portraits of Wash-
ington from life than any other artist. In 1772 he drew a half-length portrait of
Washington at Mount Vernon (painting also three miniatures "for Mrs. Wash-
ington" and the Custis children), and making at the same time the "bust
study," which he kept for many years. For other portraits, Washington gave
him sittings in 1776, 1778, 1779, 1781, 1783, 1786, 1787, and finally in 1795,
enabling Peale to paint in all fourteen portraits from life.
176 GEORGE WASHINGTON.

hand resting upon the hip holds his hat; the left is upon a cannon. The broad
blue sash which he prescribed for himself in General Orders, "Cambridge, July
14, 1775," to designate the Commander-in-chief, passes diagonally across the
breast over the right shoulder beneath the coat. This mark of distinction is
omitted from several of the pictures painted by Peale. The picture was pur-
chased by Mr. S. P. Avery, Jr., from Miss Bell, of Tooting, Surrey, England, in
whose family it had been for several generations, and by him sold to Mr. C. P.
Huntington.

598 THUSNELDA AT THE TRIUMPHAL ENTRY OF GER-
MANICUS INTO ROME.
Painted to order for the late A. T. Stewart, Esq. At the request of
Emperor William, was exhibited in Berlin before being sent to this country.
The large painting now in the Munich Gallery was painted subsequently to the
above.
The following description is by the artist himself:
The Emperor Tiberius, surrounded by his Courtiers (Favorites, Coun-
cilors, Lictors, Senators, and Roman Women), has taken his place upon »
136
fcribuhe' under a spread canopy, in order that the triumphal procession ol
Germanicus may pass before him.
Germanicus appears in the background upon a triumphal car, accom-
panied by his five sons, surrounded by Trophies of Victory, and is greeted by
the applause and acclamations of the people, who are to be seen at the Arch of
Triumph.
In front of the car, reaching from the middle distance to the foreground
of the picture, are the German captives being led in chains. As principal
figure in this group and of the picture, walks Thusnelda, in the costume of the
Germans, with her son, Tumelicus (a child of three years), accompanied by a
nurse and an attendant. Before her is the priest, Libes, coupled (chained)
together with warriors, escorted by Roman soldiers. Behind Thusnelda are to
be seen her brothers, leaders of the Cherusci, chained together, with bears,
etc., etc. The foreground to the left is occupied by the populace of Rome, who
mock and insult Thusnelda.
Thusnelda having been forcibly carried away from her husband, Armin~
ius, a German Prince, by her father Segestes, was, from reasons which appeared
to him advantageous for his own personal interests and the condition of the
Germans, betrayed and delivered into the hands of the Romans.
In the picture, Tiberius has selected Segestes to stand before the steps of
his throne, and has forced him to witness the shame of his own daughter; be is
mocked by the Senators sitting near him, as they point to the prisoners below.
Strabo describes, as an eye-witness, this event; he, as well as Tacitus,
although Romans, express plainly their sympathy for the devotion and love of
country exhibited by Thusnelda, whose personality will ever be a poetical
subject for an artist.

PINE, Robert Edge. English School.
Born at London, 1742; died at Philadelphia, 1790. He was the son
of Mr. John Pine, the engraver, and was established in London as early as
1761-62. For his picture "The Surrender of Calais," 1760, he received the
first prize of one hundred guineas from the Society for the Encouragement of
Art. In 1762 he obtained the first prize for "Canute on the Sea Shore, Re-
proving his Courtiers for Flattery." In 1? 72 he went to Bath, remaining until
1779, when he returned to London. In 1784 he came to America, settling in
Philadelphia with the avowed object of painting the distinguished persons and
events of our Revolution, but met with so little encouragement that he
devoted his time to portrait painting. His first portrait was that of the Hon.
Francis Hopkinson, and bears the date of 1785. Washington, in a note dated
Mount Vernon, 16th of May, 1785, to the Hon. Francis Hopkinson, consents to
give sittings to Pine for a portrait, to be introduced with other people of dis-
tinction in a large historical picture, contemplated by the artist. But his ideal
was never realized, as he died, without having made much progress with
his collection of material for his grand historical picture. He was small of
stature, and morbidly irritable. After his death his wife and children opened
a school, but soon returned to England.

PIOMBO, Fra Sebastiano del. (Real name Sebastiano Lu-
ciani.) Venetian School.
Born at Venice, 1485; died at Rome, 1547. Sebastiano Luciani, called
del Piombo, from his holding the office of Keeper of the Leaden Seal, was
originally a painter and musician at Venice, where he studied successively under
Bellini and Giorgione. His portraits in oil had won him fame before he was
invited to Rome by the famous banker, Agostino Chigi, in 1512. At this
time the papal court was divided into two strong parties, one led by Raphael,
the other by Michelangelo, and the latter, feeling his own defects as a colorist,
courted Sebastiano, in hope that, by uniting Venetian color with his own grand
design, Raphael could be outdone. When Cardinal Giulio de Medici com-
missioned Raphael to paint the "Transfiguration," he also commissioned
del Piombo to paint "Raising of Lazarus," now in the National Gallery, Lon-
don. The pictures, when finished, were exhibited side by side.

POLLAJUOLO, Antonio del. Florentine School.
Born at Florence, 1429 (?); died at Rome, 1498. Antonio and his brothel
Pietro were workers in bronze and silver ornaments, and also painters. It is
said that Antonio was the first artist who dissected the human body in order
to know how to represent it. Their most excellent productions represented
contests of strength and muscular action, such as " Hercules and Hydra," and
the ''Death of Antaeus." In painting, their model was Andrea del Castagno.
Their masterpiece is. without doubt, " St. Sebastian," in the National Gallery.
"The Archangel and Tobit" is in the Gallery of Turin. Other examples are
seen in the Galleries of Florence, Berlin, Munich, and Modena.

Born at Rome, 1613; died there, 1675. Landscape painter. Pupil
and follower of his brother-in-law, Nicolas Poussin, whose name he adopted.
Later he became more individual in style. He worked very rapidly, some-

POUSSIN, Nicolas. French School.
Born at Villeres, District of les Andelys, Normandy, 1594, died at Rome
1665. History and landscape painter. Pupil of Quentin Varin in Andelys,
and of Neol, Jouvenet, Ferdinand Elle, and Lallemont, in Paris. Went to
Rome in 1624, where he studied with Duquesnay; married the daughter of
139
jacqucs Dughet, and adopted his two sons, Jean and Gaspard, the latter took
his name and afterwards rivalled him. in fame as a painter.
In 1640, Louis XIII sent M. de Chanteloup to bring him back to France.
Although the King made him his first painter, and showered honors upon him,
Poussin found his position so intolerable on account of the jealous intrigues of
Vouet, Fouquieres, and Mercier that he returned to Rome on leave of absence.
The death of Cardinal Richelieu, in 1642, and of the King in the following year,
left him free to remain in Rome the remainder of his life.
His noble style, his skill in composition, his elegance in the grouping and
disposition of figures, and his truly grand and poetic feeling in landscape,
entitle him to the first place among painters of the French school.

PRATT, Matthew. American School.
Born at Philadelphia, September 23, 1734; died in his native city, Janu-
ary 6, 1805. His first instructor in art was his maternal uncle, James Clay-
poole, whose works unfortunately cannot be identified; that he possessed no
inconsiderable skill and knowledge in his profession is attested by the thorough
grounding of his pupil. Pratt, after doing considerable work in Philadelphia,
sailed for London, in June, 1764, accompanying Miss Shewell (whose uncle
had married Pratt's aunt), and on September 2, 1764, he gave her in marriage
to the future President of the Royal Academy. After a residence of two years
and a half with West, in London, whose first American pupil he was, he spent
eighteen months in Bristol, and shortly after returned to Philadelphia, where
he set up his easel in the spring of 1768. In 1770, he made a brief visit to Ire-
land, and painted several important pictures, among which was a whole length
140
portrait of Archdeacon Isaac Mann, in his robes, which was exhibited in Dublin
at the Irish Academy. He passed a portion of the year 1772 in New York,
during which time he painted a full-length portrait of Cadwalader Colden for
the Chamber of Commerce, which is still in possession of that body. About the
same period he painted the portraits of several members of the Walton family.
His portrait of West and wife are in the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts,
Philadelphia, and that city also boasts of the earliest authenticated likeness of
the great American philosopher, Franklin, which is his work.
206 THE AMERICAN SCHOOL.
This interesting picture represents West's painting room in London. T»
the left, West, with hat on, stands by Pratt, correcting a drawing. At the
right of the painting, with palette and brushes in hand, is another student who
has turned to listen to the words of the master. In the center are two younger
students, one of whom is supposed to be Abraham Delanoy, of New York, who
was studying with West at that time, and whose portrait by West was recently
in the possession of the De Peyster family. The picture was exhibited by
Pratt, at the Old Spring Gardens, in London, in 1766, under the title still
preserved.
This picture shows Pratt to have been an artist of no ordinary ability, as
it is a remarkable composition to have been executed at so early a day by an
American artist, and its color, scheme, and detail are worthy of special notice.

REMBRANDT VAN RIJN (Rembrandt Harmensz Van
Rijn). Dutch School.
Born at Leyden, July 15, 1606. Buried in the Westerkerk (Church of
the West) at Amsterdam, October 8, 1669. He was the son of a pros-
perous miller of Leyden whose ambition was to see him in one of the learned
professions. But the boy's love for art overcame all difficulties and oppo-
sitions, and he entered the studio of Van Swanenburg as a pupil, and
later that of Pieter Lastman. The bold strong features of old age had a fas-
cination for Rembrandt, the bold markings, broad planes, and vigorous lines
easily gave him that clue to a mastery of expression which is so characteristic
of all his works. In 1631 he opened a studio in Amsterdam, and resided
there until his death. In 1634 he married Saskia Van Uylenborch, whose
fair face and form are seen in many of his portraits, biblical and historical
pictures. For eight years fortune smiled upon him; his studio was crowded
with pupils and he had patronage far beyond his needs. But Saskia died
in 1642 and a gloom was cast over the life of the young painter. In the
development of his art he left not only the impress of his own individuality
upon each work by his hand, but recorded the characteristics of the peo-
ple among whom he lived with a vigor and vital force which has never been
equaled and is well illustrated in his portrait groups, especially that of the
Syndics in the Rycks Museum at Amsterdam. In 1650, Hendrikje Stoffels,
a beautiful young girl from the country, came to live in his home as house-
keeper, where she remained during the remainder of his life the devoted and
loving friend, watching over, and caring for him tenderly during his last
days of poverty and misfortune until the end came. Unfortunately, Rem-
brandt had been too lavish in his expenditures, fashion changed and under the
influence of French tastes for the lighter, smoother, and more elegant and
decorative pictures, Rembrandt was neglected and his more robust art found
little favor; debts accumulated, commissions were few, and at last he was
declared a bankrupt and his whole effects were sold by auction. But the
artist knew his powers, and the most splendid achievements of his life were
accomplished when he was in direst poverty and extreme want.
240 PORTRAIT OF A MAN.
A man about forty years of age wearing a high crown, broad brim, black
hat, a wide, white linen collar and black habit, is seated a little to the right
with the face framed in long, dark-brown hair; looking out of the canvas
the grave eyes meet yours with the sedate but kindly look of one who in-
vites acquaintance. The left hand partially concealed by his dress and a
lace ruff at the wrist are seen in shadow at the bottom of the canvas.
Painted according to Dr. Bode, about 1640. Purchased from the Marquis
of Lansdowne in 1883. Bust. Life-size.

239 PORTRAIT GF A MAN.
He is seen standing, wearing a large black hat, which casts a deep shadow
over the upper portion of his countenance, from which his melancholy eyes
look at the spectator with an intense dreamy expression. _ A rich golden
brown gaberdine covers his figure, which has but little relief from a back-
ground of a similar tone.

This picture came from the collection formed by Sir William Knightorij
Bart., physician to King George IV.
Sir William Knighton, besides being a very eminent medical man, was an
accomplished amateur artist. He was a personal friend of George IV, whilst
Prince Regent, and his principal adviser in the formation of the collection of
Dutch pictures at Buckingham Palace, now the property of the Crown.
His own collection was kept intact until within a few years, when it was
sold at the death of his son, who left no successor; the baronetcy becoming
extinct.

241 THE ADORATION OF THE SHEPHERDS.
The shepherds are kneeling around the Infant Saviour Who lies upon a
couch of straw in the interior of a stable, wrapt in the darkness and mystery
of night. As in the " Notte " of Correggio, a supernatural light emanates from
the Infant, illuminating the surrounding figures. The one in deep shadow,
kneeling, in the foreground, is forcibly relieved against the principal group.
A man bearing a lantern which glimmers in the darkness has just entered the
stable from the right followed by another group of figures, one of whom bears
another lantern.
This picture is a replica or copy of the one in the National Gallery ir
London.

THE MILLS.
A sombre landscape of a warm, brownish tone, heavy with rain, the dull
gray clouds are reflected in the waters of the canal, and hang over the distant
landscape, shadowing almost to obscurity the long line of mills that bordei
the artificial stream. But the old red mill, which stands in the foreground
with its tiled roof, massive walls, and arched gateway, the moving figures, tin
quay, and the boats which drift upon the waters of the canal, are in a perpetua
144
golden glow, despite the heavy atmosphere of the low lands of Holland. " The
old mill, in which Rembrandt was born," is inscribed upon the back of this
picture. Formerly in the Cartright collection; described by Vosmaer in his
list of Rembrandt's effects: "A picture of houses."

REYNOLDS, Sir Joshua, P.R.A. English School.
First President of the Royal Academy. Born in Devonshire, at Plympton
Earl 1723, where his father was a schoolmaster. Died at London, 1792.
"Done by Joshua out of pure idleness," wrote his father over a drawing which
the boy had done in his exercise-book. "While I am doing this," wrote
Joshua himself of his drawing, a few years later, "I am the happiest creature
alive." When he was eighteen he was sent to London to study under Hudson.
After two years he had made such good progress as to estrange his master.
After a year spent at Plymouth he went to London again; but upon his
father's death he returned, in 174G, to Plymouth, where he won the friend-
ship of Lord Edgcumbe, who introduced him to Captain Keppel, who
offered to take him to Italy on board his own ship, the "Centurion." In
May, 1749, they set sail, and till the end of the year Reynolds stayed with the
Governor of Minorca, painting portraits. For two years he studied in
Rome. From Rome he went to Parma, Florence, and Venice. At Parma
he came under Correggio's influence; at Venice he studied Titian. "To
possess a real, fine picture by that great master," he once said, "I would will-
ingly ruin myself."
Reynolds returned to London in 1752. He settled first in St. Martin's
Lane; afterwards in Great Newport Street, and finally (from 1760 onward)
in Leicester Square, where his house (No. 47) may still be seen — nearly oppo-
site to the site of Hogarth's. From this time forward Reynold's life was one
unbroken success. Other painters arose from time to time to divide his popu-
larity. Opie, Gainsborough, and Hoppner; but Reynolds' supremacy w;< -
never seriously threatened. In 1768, when the Royal Academy was founded,
he was elected President by acclamation, and was knighted by the king — an
honor which has ever since been offered to the holder of that office.

ROUSSEAU, Pierre Etienne Theodore. Barbizon School
Born at Paris, April 15, 1812; died at Barbizon, near Fontainebleau,
December 22, 1867. Landscape painter; pupil of Remond (1826) and of
Lethiere. Showed himself a true "naturalist" in his first picture (1826), and
up to 1848 — when his works, after being for thirteen years excluded from the
Salon by the Academical Jury, then abolished, were readmitted — fought the
battle of naturalism with varying success, and founded the modern French
school of landscape painting, of which he was one of the chief glories. Albert
Wolfe said of Rousseau: "He occupied the highest place, because he was the
most perfect master. The grand aspect of landscape and its tenderness are
equally familiar to him. He renders with the same mastery the smile of
creation and its terrors, the broad open plain and the mysterious forest; the
limpid, sunb right sky or the heaping of the clouds put to flight by storms;
the terrible aspect of landscape or those replete with grace. He has under-
stood all, rendered all, with equal genius. The great contemporary painters
have each a particular stamp, Corot painting the grace; Millet the hidden
voice; Jules Dupr6, the majestic strength. Theodore Rousseau has been by
turns as much a poet as Corot, as melancholy as Millet, as awful as Dupre; he
is the most complete, for he embraces landscape art absolutely."

RUBENS, Peter Paul. Flemish School
Born at Siegen, June 28, 1577, baptized (the day after his birth) on
the festival of Saints Peter and Paul (hence his Christian name), is the chief
glory of the Flemish school, and one of the great masters of the world. This
remarkable man, scholar, painter and diplomatist, was descended from two
good families. His father, Jan Rubens, was an Alderman of Antwerp, and
his mother,- Maria Pypelinckx, belonged to a distinguished family of the
same city. Rubens' talent for drawing early led him to decide upon paint-
ing as a profession. He entered the school of Adam Van Noort, with whom he
remained four years. Another four years was passed in the studio of Otto
or Otho Vaenius, whose cultivation of mind and taste was of more advan-
tage to Rubens than his instruction in painting. In 1598 he was admitted
to the Guild of Painters in Antwerp; his father had died, and his mother
had returned to that city. In 1600 he went to Venice and studied the
works of Titian and Paul Veronese. For eight years Rubens was in the
service of the D :ke of Mantua. An excellent Latin scholar, he was also
proficient in French, Italian, English, German, and Dutch. These gifts pro-
cured him diplomatic employment. In 1603 he was sent on a mission to
Spain. In 1608 news of his mother's illness reached him, and he hastened
home, -when he was appointed Court painter to the Archduke Albert, then
Governor of the Netherlands. In 1622 he visited Paris at the invitation of
Marie de' Medici (a sister of the Duchess of Mantua). In 1628 he was sent on
a mission to Philip IV of Spain, and in the following year he was sent to
Charles I of England. Here he was knighted, and was given an honorary-
degree by the University of Cambridge. But wherever he went, Rubens con-
tinued to paint, and his diplomacy he considered as a mere recreation. "The
painter Rubens," he is reported to have said of himself, "amuses himself with
being ambassador." How hard he labored is known by the enormous number
of his works — between 2,000 and 3,000. In 1609 Rubens married his first wife,
Isabella Brant, who died in 1626, leaving two sons, to whom Gevartius was
tutor. It was in 1630 that he married Helena Fourment, who was at that
time but sixteen years old. She bore him five children, survived him, and
married again. Both his wives so often served him for models that their
forms and faces are familiar to the world. He died May 30, 1640, and was
buried in his private chapel in the Church of St. Jacques, at Antwerp, which
is decorated with a magnificent work of his own.
48 RETURN OF THE HOLY FAMILY FROM EGYPT.
This admirable picture was painted for the Church of the Jesuits at Ant-
werp prior to 1620, after Rubens' return from Italy, and before he had called in
the aid of assistants. It was done immediately after finishing the famous-
151
" Crucifixion " in the Cathedral of Antwerp, and before the execution of its com-
panion picture, that other masterpiece, "The Descent from the Cross;" or, in
other words, at the period when this prince of painters produced his greatest
works. Grandeur of style and power of coloring are equally the characteristics
of "The Return from Egypt." Reference is made to it in the catalogue of a
sale, May 20, 1777, of the pictures taken from churches and convents of the
Jesuits, at Antwerp suppressecTby the decree of the Emperor Joseph II ^ Re-
turn from Egypt. The Infant Jesus, the Holy Virgin, and St. Josepl~ <J 'ha
Eternal Father is seen in the upper part of the picture, enveloped in clouds.
Well grouped. Painted on wood. H., 7 ft. 9 in. ; B., 5 ft. 4 in." It was bought
at this sale by the rich banker Dannoot, and is thus described in the catalogue of
the Dannoot sale (page 27, No.61), held at Brussels in 1S29, when it was bought
Iw Mr. Buchanan, one of the most skillful London experts: "The Return from
llgypt. The Holy Virgin and St. Joseph hold by the hand the Redeemer of
the World. The mother looks with solicitude on the Divine Infant. The
Child raises His eyes to her, and seems to announce to her a happier destiny.
The Father from heaven contemplates this scene with tenderness. An
admirable picture, well composed, and painted with decision. It cannot be
seen without exciting a sentiment of respect and devotion." It is also men-
tioned in Smith's Catalogue, Vol. 2, page 21, No. 71. Smith's description is
from Bolswert's engraving, where the engraver has introduced the Holy
Spirit, and an aureole around the head of St. Joseph, which never exis'ed in
the original; and is described in the Life of P. P. Rubens, by I. F. Michel,
Brussels, 1771: "At the end of the small nave at the right is another piece by
the same master, representing the Virgin and St. Joseph leading the Infant
Jesus by the hand. Although the composition is unpretentious, the feeling in
the heads and the beauty of the flesh tints cause it to be much admired." It
is also mentioned in all the other guide-books for amateurs in Belgium, etc.,
and in the " Histoirc de P. P. Rubens," by Andrew Van Hasselt, page 248,
No. 214, and in the " Dictionary of Painters," by A. Siret, page 787, 2d edition,
This picture was transferred from wood to canvas between 1879 and 1882 and
was seriously injured at that time in an attempt at restoration.

49 THE HOLY FAMILY.
The Virgin is seated at the right dressed in a red robe, with an under-skirt
of a deeper tone which is folded across her lap; from underneath, the white
drapery falls to her feet. Her left arm is extended and rests gracefully on tb?
folds of a dark green mantle which has been laid over the back of her seat.
The Infant Christ standing upon His mother's knee, with one arm thrown
about Her neck and the other extended downwards, turns His head in loving

33 CAMBYSES' PUNISHMENT OF AN UNJUST JUDGE.
It is a tradition that the Persian king, Cambyses, caused an unjust and
prevaricating judge to be skinned alive, and then appointed his son to fill the
chair made vacant by the death of his father, and obliged him to sit upon a
cushion made of his father's skin. Over the judge's seat the painter has dis-
played the face and hands of the victim. A finished study for the painting
made for the Magistrates' Hall at the city of Brussels, and which was destroyed
in the conflagration caused by the bombardment in 1695.

SCHEFFER, Ary. French School.
Born at Dordrecht, Feb. 10, 1795; died at Argenteuil, June 15, 1858
History and portrait painter; son of Johann Baptist Scheffer; pupil of
Guerin. Sympathizing neither with the classic school represented by his
master, nor the romantic led by Gericault and Delacroix, Scheffer took up a
class of subjects which showed his sympathy with the cause of freedom, such
as the Suliote women, an episode of the Greek war, and the Battle of Morat.
Influenced by Ingres, he sought and obtained greater purity of forr», and
painted subjects from Goethe and Byron. In 1836 he was appointed art
instructor to the Orleans family, and directed the studies of Princess Marie
in sculpture. In 1836 he accompanied the Due d' Orleans and General Bau-
brand, whose widow he afterwards married, to the siege of Antwerp, and after
his return painted several military episodes for Versailles. Between 1835 and
1848 he produced his greatest works, the "Christus Consolator and Judex,"
the "Francesca" and the "Mignon." When the Revolution broke out,
Scheffer assisted the King and his family in their escape from Paris, and then
went to Holland and England for rest. The coup d'etat of 1852, which gave
Louis Napoleon the throne, was a blow to his hopes which finally disgusted him
with politics, from which he withdrew altogether. Five years later, after a last
visit to England, he lost his friends Manin and the Duchesse d'Oiieans, to
whom he was much attached. After attending the funeral of the latter, he
returned much broken to France, and shortly after died.

534 BARON ALEXANDER VON HUMBOLDT.
Painted from life at the age of 89 years.
In the year 1857, the late Mr. Albert Haverneyer, of this city, being then
in Berlin, called on Baron von Humboldt and requested him to sit for his
portrait to the eminent artist, Julius Schrader. The Baron was obliged to
decline the frequent and urgent solicitations of his many admirers for a similar
favor, but having in the United States many personal friends and acquaint-
ances whom he thought would be gratified to see a good portrait of him,
cheerfully consented to sit; and taking from his table a number of sketches
made of himself, he selected one having in the background Chimborazo, and
said, "I will be painted sitting here," designating the spot with Chimborazo
in the distance. The artist commenced the picture at once, and at its com-
pletion the Baron expressed himself as delighted with it. This was the las'
portrait, from life, of Humboldt.

SHEE, Sir Martin Archer. English School.
Born at Dublin, 1769; died at Brighton, 1850. He came from an old
Irish family, and it was Burke who introduced him, when he came from Dublin
io London in 1789, to Reynolds. His own suavity and good manners were
jven better introductions to the portrait painter's clientele, and he soon met
1th distinguished patrons. In 1789 he was elected A.R.A., and having mar-
159
ried. moved into Romney's old house in Cavendish Square. In 1800 he be-
came R.A., and upon the death of Sir Thomas Lawrence, in 1830, he was
elected to the presidency of the Royal Academy. In 1805 he published a
volume of verse (followed in 1809 and 1814 by others), which called forth
praise from Byron in his "English Bards and Scotch Reviewers":
" And here let Shee and genius find a place,
Whose pen and pencil yield an equal grace:
While honors, doubly merited, attend
The poet's rival, but the painter's friend."

STEEN, Jan Havicksz. Dutch School.
Born at Leyden about 1626; died there, 1679. He loved a jovial, roister-

that in his half drunken state he could have executed two hundred works of so
much merit. He studied first with Nicholas Knupfer, and Van Goyen, whose
daughter he married in 1649, and developed under the influence of Frans Hals
and Adrian Van Ostade. He was fond of representing the humorous and
ludicrous scenes incident to the life which he led, degenerating often into
vulgarity. His pictures may be seen in nearly all of the large Continental
Galleries.

people look down upon a young man standing upon a tub fiddling for the
dancers in their merry sport, and a boatload of hilarious souls are just pushing;
from the shore, bidding adieu to a friend who raises his cap with his right hand
and extends his left with a full mug of beer in a parting salute. A cool, cloudy
sky, an arched bridge over a stream of water, a group of trees in the center,
with the old tavern at the left, form the landscape; and in the immediate
middle foreground is a family group with a basket of refreshments, and a
black dog in repose.

STUART, Gilbert. American School.
Born at Narragansett, Rhode Island, December 3, 1755; died Boston,
July 27, 1828. After some unaided efforts he received instruction from
Cosmo Alexander, a Scotch portrait painter, whom he accompanied to Scot-
land in 1772. The death of his master left Stuart to shift for himself, and
after struggling a while at the University of Glasgow, he returned home. In
1775 he went again to England, where he found a friend in Benjamin West,
whose studio he entered as a pupil, but soon became an assistant to his master.
In 1785 he set up a studio of his own in London, achieving marked popularity
and financial success. He visited Ireland in 1788, where he was received with
great favor, and painted the portraits of many distinguished persons, and
returned to America in 1792. Soon after his arrival in New York the Duke of
Kent offered to send a ship of war for him if he would gf to Nova Scotia and
paint his portrait, but he declined the offer. Among his sitters in Europe
were three Kings: Louis XVI, George III, and George IV while Prince Jt
Wales. He painted also Alderma- Boy dell, John Kemble^ Sir Joshua Rey-
nolds, Benjamin West, and many other distinguished artists. Six Presidents
164
of the limited States sat to him for their portraits, viz.: George Washington.
John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, and John
Quincy Adams. After working two years in New York, Philadelphia, and
Washington, Stuart settled in Boston, where he resided the remainder of his
life. Stuart was gifted with a perception which enabled him to select the true
lines of thought and character of his sitter, which he rendered without hesita-
tion. A collection of two hundred and fifteen of his works was exhibited in
the Boston Athenaeum soon after his decease, for the benefit of his family,
which realized a considerable sum.

folk until his brother Lawrence's death, in 1804. In 1806, having married his
brother's widow, he removed to New York, and lived there, excepting a short
visit to Boston for instruction from Gilbert Stuart, until 1808, when he
removed to Philadelphia. In 1809 he went to London, studied several
months under Benjamin West, and coming back in 1810, settled permanently
in Philadelphia. He again visited England in 1837-38, and in the latter year

7 A DUTCH KITCHEN.
Before this picture came into the possession of the Museum, the beef,
which is now seen suspended at the right, was completely obliterated by a
dark-gray cloth and other objects, which had been painted over it in an
attempt to conceal or repair an injury to the canvas. The painting has
recently been cleaned and these objects removed, leaving the composition
the same as when the picture left the easel of the artist.
In a spacious old kitchen with heavy oak beams, at the right a newly
dressed beef is suspended with a bowl beneath to catch the drippings; be-
hind a man and a woman are engaged in conversation. In the center above
there is a window and underneath it a door, through which a man is stepping
with a bowl in his outstretched hands. At the left a woman in a bright red
waist, white apron, and dark green skirt, stands by an open well with an
earthen pitcher resting on the curb. She is surrounded with kitchen uten-
sils, a shining brass kettle, jars, and a small table, covered with vegetables.
A white spotted dog stands in the near foreground, and a bright red liver,
166
which hangs from a beam near the middle center of the picture, strikes a
high color note.

TENIERS, David (the Younger). Flemish School.
Born at Antwerp, 1610; died at Perck, near Brussels, 1690. The most
eminent genre painter of Belgium. He was instructed by his father but
was veiy much influenced by Rubens. His first wife was the daughter
of Jan Brueghel, and the second, Isabelle de Fren, a daughter of the Secre-
tary of State for Brabant. He was much favored by the Archduke Leopold
William, and by Don Juan, of Austria; he excelled in representations of the
alchemist, fairs, and festivals of all sorts. His touch was light and brilliant
his coloring exquisitely beautiful.
Teniers, though a Fleming by birth, belongs rather to the Dutch school
in style, being one of the principal genre painters, of whom most of the other
leading masters are Dutch. The place of Teniers in art history is that he
was par excellence the painter of the pleasures of the ale-house and card-
table. He was refined in person, enjoyed the highest patronage, and was
the friend of courtiers and princes. Yet he remained throughout his life
the painter of the pot-house.
77 A MARRIAGE FESTIVAL.
The foreground is occupied with peasants who are dancing to the music
of a bagpipe. At the right and behind under the trees a multitude of people,
in hilarious enjoyment of the wedding feast, are seated at tables which ex-

men are quarreling and friends of each are seen coming to the rescue. Public
buildings and a church-spire rise from the village in the distance into a
sunny evening sky.

in 1847 revealed to Troyon his true mission, that of an animal painter. His
great technical skill and inexhaustible resources as a colorist, and other
rare endowments, enabled him to grapple with all the varying moods and
effects of nature, and in this new line of cattle and landscape painter he
soon became illustrious. Medals: third class, 1838; second class, 1840;

Went to London in 1780 to study under Benjamin West, but was imprisoned
eight months, and returned home in 1782; went again on the conclusion
of peace, and resumed his studies. His "Battle of Bunker Hill" (1786,
engraved by J. G. Miiller) was the first of a series of historical works iD'lS-
trating the war of the Revolution. It was followed by the " Death of Mont-
171

TURNER, Joseph Mallord William. English School.
Born in Maiden Lane, Covent Garden, London, 1775; died, 1851. He
was the son of a barber, and his father intended him for his own profession.
Of his earlier sketches, made in pencil and india ink when he was a boy, a
large proportion consists of careful studies of stranded boats, and different
parts of old Dutch shipping. He hired himself out every evening to wash
in skies in india ink in other people's drawings, at hal; a crown a night, get-
ting his supper into the bargain. It was in water color that Turner first
painted. By 1789 he began to paint in oils, and this great genius, who now
Holds the first place in English landscape art, entered the Royal Academy
as a student at the age of thirteen, and under the prevailing influence of the
day studied the works of Claude Lorrain, the Poussins, Salvator Rosa, and
other classical painters. A close observer and diligent student, nature
early revealed to his mind an illimitable source of glorious truths, which
left no room for influences, methods, or conceits, other than those which
his unerring accuracy of perception led him to formulate for the perfect
rendering of material loveliness with unrivaled precision. Ruskin says:
"The great distinctive passion of Turner's nature— that which separates
him from all other modern landscape painters — is his sympathy with sorrow,
deepened by his continual sense of the power of death. Colossal in power,
he was also tender and delicate in harmony of tint and subtlety of drawing.
He had a perfect grasp of English scenery, and shrank from no labor in
expressing details. His Yorkshire drawings are peculiarly rich and varied
in composition, the rock and hill forms being marvelously accurate, while
172
his skies and effects of mist are exquisitely rendered. Glorious in conception
— unfathomable in knowledge — solitary in power — with the elements waiting
upon his will, and the night and morning obedient to his call, sent as a prophet
of God to reveal to men the mysteries of a universe; standing like the great
angel of the Apocalypse, clothed with a cloud, and with a rainbow upon his
head, and with the sun and stars given int > his hand."

1812-14. Purchased in 1851 by John Miller, of Liverpool, for 300 guineas.
A letter from John Ruskin, dated November 22, 1852, says: "I once bid

above.

341 THE WHALE SHIP.
"Hurrah for the good ship Erebus!
Another Fish."
(Vide Beale's Voyage.)
A white, phantom-like ship, under full sail, is seen emerging through

harpooned, rears its huge head from the sea in the foreground and is spouting
water stained with blood; with its tail it has overturned one of the four
boats put out for its capture. The picture is luminous and lovely in color,
with a variety of hues in both sky and water which are infinitely beautiful.

VELAZQUEZ, Diego Rodriguez de Silva y. Spanish School.
Born at Seville, 1599; died at Madrid, 1660. Both his parents were
of noble blood — his father's name being Silva, his mother's Velazquez. His
175
talent for drawing quickly showed itself. He studied first with Herrera
el Viejo, a painter of Seville, his second master being Pacheco,whose daughter
he married in 1618, and whose house, says one of the Spanish historians,
was "the golden prison of painting"; and it was here that Velazquez met
Cervantes and obtained his first introduction to the brilliant circle in which
he himself was to shine. In Pacheco's company he went, in 1622, to Madrid,
returning one year later at the request of Olivares, who persuaded the King
to sit to Velazquez for his portrait. The portrait was a complete success,
and the painter stepped at once into fame and favor. From the time of
this first portrait of Philip IV onward, the life of Velazquez was one oi
long triumph. He was made in succession Painter to the King, Krc-ci
of the Wardrobe, Usher of the Royal Chamber, and Chamberlain, i, i
offices were also found for his friends and relations. When Charles 1,
then Prince of Wales, visited Madrid, in 1623, Velazquez painted his
portrait. The Duke of Buckingham was also his friend, and Velazquez
saw something too of Rubens, when the latter came on his diplomatic
mission to Madrid. In 1629 he traveled with recommendations from
the King, and wherever he went — Venice, Ferrara, Rome, Naples — he was
received with all the honors accorded to princes. • His second visit to Italy
was in 1649. At Rome he painted the portrait of the Pope (Innocent X),
which made so great a mark that it was carried in triumphal procession,
like Cimabue's picture of old. His royal master, however, became irn-
oatient for his return, and he hurried back to Madrid in lfiil On his
return he was given fresh honors and offices — especially that, ^i Quarter
Master, whose duty it was to superintend the personal lodgement of the
King during excursions. It was the duties of this office which were the
immediate cause of his death. He accompanied the King to the conference
at the "Island of Pheasants," which led to the marriage of Louis XIV with
the Infaata Maria Teresa. There is a picture of him at Versailles by the
French artist Lebrun, which was painted on this occasion. The portrait,
somber and cadaverous-looking, was, no doubt, true to life; and when
Velazquez returned to Madrid it was found that his exertions in arranging
the royal journey had sown the seeds of a fever, from which, after a week's
illness, he died. Seven days later his wife died of grief, and was buried at
his side.
270 VELAZQUEZ.

VINCI, Leonardo da School of. Florentine School.
Born at Vinci, Val d'Arno, near Florence, in 1452; died at the Chateau
de Clot, or Cloux, near Ambroise, May 2, 1519. Florentine School, pupil
of Andrea del Verrocchio, with whom he was associated as late as 1476. The
bright angel which he painted in his master's picture of the "Baptism of
Christ," Florence Academy, and the "Medusa Head" at the Uffizi attributed
to him, are the only extant works of the earlier period of his style, which closed
in 1483. Lodovico Sforza, Duke of Milan, appointed him court painter,
director of the newly founded Academy of Arts, general organizer of fetes in
which art played a conspicuous part, and manager of all enterprises in which
a knowledge of hydraulics engineering and general science was necessary.
For the Duke he executed the famous wall painting of the "Last Supper"
(1495-98), in Santa Maria delle Grazie, and modeled an equestrian statue,
never cast, of his father, Francesco Sforza. When Lodovico was overthrown
by the French (1499), and sent to France to die in a dungeon at the Castle of
Loches, Leonardo returned to Florence, thence to Venice, and (in 1502) he
visited the fortress of the principal cities of Romagna as military engineer to
180
Caesar Borgia. Between 1503 and 1505 he produced the famous Cartoon of the
"Battle of the Standard," from which he was to have painted a fresco in the
great hall of the Palazzo Vecchio, at Florence. In October, 1507, Leonardo
tonce more established himself in Milan, until 1514, when he accompanied
Giuliano de' Medici to Rome to assist at the Coronation of Leo X. In 1516 he
tvent to France, at the invitation of Francis I, and spent the last three years of
his life in the King's service.

"There can be no doubt that this most admirable and unique picture
should be referred to Leonardo's early period; i.e., that it was executed at
Florence before his removal to Milan, consequently anterior to 1483-85 "
It was formerly in the possession of Lord de Ros, and afterward in that of

WALDO and JEWETT. American School.
Waldo, Samuel L. — Born in Connecticut, 1783; died at New York,
1861. He received his first instructions in art in his native State, but
painted for some time in Charleston, S. C. In 1806 he went to London,
and was admitted into the small but select circle of American artists then
in the English metropolis. After painting portraits in London for three
years, he returned to the United States in 1809, and opened a studio in New
York, where the balance of his professional life was spent. He devoted
himself to portrait painting with marked success.
Jewett, William. — Born, February 14, 1795, at East Haddam, Conn.;
died, 1873. At the age of sixteen years he was apprenticed to a coach-
maker in New London. Soon after, Samuel L. Waldo came there and
painted several portraits, the sight of which fascinated young Jewett so
much that he offered to grind the colors for Mr. Waldo that he might be
near and see him at his work: later followed him to New York, and became
his assistant: very many portraits bear the impress of the two men who
worked together in perfect harmony for eighteen consecutive years.

THE LAST VOYAGE— SOUVENIR OF THE GANGES— BENARES.
A superstition exists among the pious Hindus that the souls of the faith-
ful who die on the left bank of the Ganges River are blessed, and enter directly
into Paradise, while those who pass away on the opposite shores are cursed,
and their souls are changed into long-suffering donkeys or other beasts of
burden. So the boy rows lustily, while a comrade fans the old Fakir in order
that he may arrive soon enough to draw his last breath in the shadow of some
temple and pass directly into peace. The background shows a line of temple
steps, and wooden platforms, built out over the stream to facilitate bathing
and washing in the waters of the sacred river, as well as for meditation. The
devout sit for hours sheltered under their straw umbrellas dotted like mush-
rooms along the shore. In the centre of the background is the burning ghat,
where after death the bodies of the better classes are burned in the open.

WEST, Benjamin. American School.
Born at Springfield, Penn., October 10, 1738; died in London, March
11, 1820. He began to draw when seven years old and. took his first lessons
in preparing colors from Cherokee Indians. After a little instruction from
a painter named Williams, he set up, when eighteen years old, in Philadel-
phia, as a portrait painter; thence removed to New York, and in 1760 went
to Italy, where he remained until 1763, when he settled in London. His
pictures of "Agrippina bringing home the ashes of Germanicus," painted
for the Archbishop of York, and the "Departure of Regulus," bought by
George III, won him royal patronage and favor, which he long enjoyed.
From 1769 to 1801, during which time he received all orders from the King,
who made him his historical painter, 1772, West gained £34,187. The
seven pictures illustrating revealed religion, which he painted for the Oratory
at Windsor, brought him in £20,705, and his many portraits of members of
the Royal family were highly remunerative. On the death of Sir Joshua
Reynolds, 1792, West succeeded him as President of the Royal Academy,
cf which he had been one of the founders in 1768, and with the exception
of a few months, held that office until his death, in 1820.

Bis inclination appeared to lead him equally to figures and landscape, but
187
meeting with considerable success in painting small whole length portraits,
he for some time made that his pursuit; after practising some years in London
he visited Ireland, where he painted a large picture of the Irish House of
Commons, which gave him great reputation. Returning to London about
1780, he was invited to contribute twelve pictures for Boydell's Shakespeare.

WILSON, Richard, R.A. English School.
Born at Pinegas, Montgomeryshire, 1713; died at Llanberris, Carnar-
vonshire, 1782. An eminent English landscape painter. He early mani*
fested a taste for drawing, and gave such promise that his relative, Sir George
Wynne, took him to London, and placed him under an obscure portrait
painter, Thomas Wright, where he made rapid progress. In 1748 he painted
a large picture of the Prince of Wales, and his brother the Duke of York.
In 1749 he went to Italy. While stopping at Venice, he paid a visit to
Zuccarelli, who happened to be from home, and Wilson, to pass the time,
made a sketch in oils, of the view from the painter's window. Zuccarelli
thought so highly of this sketch that he recommended Wilson to relinquish
portrait and take to landscape painting. A similar experience with Vernet?
in Rome, caused Wilson to devote himself to landscape painting,.

586 THE DEATH OF A VENDEAN CHIEF.
This picture was nearly finished at the artist's death. It depicts an inci-
dent in the romantic insurrection of the inhabitants of La Vendee, March, 1793,
to March, 1796, against the over-harsh interference of the revolutionists with
the rights of their simple community.
The wounded chief surrounded by his family and followers is lying upon a
litter of straw in the crypt where he has been taken, fatally wounded after a
desperate conflict. A priest kneels by his side administering the last rites of
the church, and his grief-stricken wife leans over the prostrate form, covering
her face with one hand while she holds out the crucifix before his face with the

CRIVELLI, Carlo. Schools of Padua and Murano.
1430?-1495? By descent, and probably by birth, a Venetian. Born early
in the XV. Century (1430?). Little is known of his history, but marked
affinities of style connect him with the Schools of Padua and Murano. He
settled, perhaps, a little before 1468, at Ascoli, in the Marches of Ancona, and
in that neighborhood he seems to have spent the rest of his lifetime. The
characteristic ieatures of his art are sharpness, not to say hardness, of outline,
combined with exact modelling, color resplendent and diverse, from the
primary tints to the most delicate tertiaries supported and harmonized by the
use of gold and the introduction of gilt and silvered ornaments in high relief.
Of his dated works, the earliest (1468) is the altar-piece in S. Silvestro at
Massa, near Fermo. His great altar-piece of 1476 is in the National Gallery,
London; two exquisite pictures of the "Enthroned Madonna and Infant"
are -in the Lateran Gallery, Rome, dated respectively 1481 and 1482. A
superb triptych, also one of his finer works, a "Coronation of the Virgin"
(date 1493), and four other works by him, are in the Brera at Milan; his
splendid "Annunciation" (1486) is in the National Gallery. The Vatican
has a passionately conceived " Pieta," and the Berlin Gallery has an important
" Madonna" and a "Magdalen." There are many other works by this artist.
In 1490, Crivelli was knighted by Ferdinand of Capua.

AMONG THE LOWLY.
The following is a translation of a letter written by the artist :
Wissant, Pas de Calais, August 11, 1905.
G-entlemen : To succinctly reply to the question that yoxi hare asked me
concerning the Salon painting of which you have just become the possessors, I
will say to you that I have wished to depict the Christ, the friend of the
humble folk, eternal consoler of the poor for whom life is a burden.
He brings to them, in coming into their midst, the comforting and helpful
words which engender hope.
A large part of the interest in my painting centres upon the young mother
surrounded by her children. She is wholly absorbed in the contemplation of
the divine visitor, to whose exhortations she is listening in rapt devotion.
I have endeavored to bring to all of the figures in this scene the varieties
of emotions proper to each, but united as one in the expression of confidence —
respectful in the old, searchingly so in the young.
To better convey the feeling, I have placed in the light, in this sombre hut,
the principal actors of the scene, taking advantage of that privilege which .
nature placed at my service to help me in my artistic intentions.
It is thus that the effect of the concentrated light has seemed to me to
contribute to the expression of the feeling, the emotion, sought.
I am happy to see that you have not been insensible to these researches in
art, and charmed that this picture, the execution of which has occupied nearly
all of last year, goes to America as a specimen of my work.
I do not forget that it is to you that I owe this honor, which I fully appre
ciate.
Permit me, therefore, Gentlemen, to offer to you in this regard, with
feelings of gratitude, the expi-ession of my most distinguished sentiments and
entire devotion. ,

JANUARY, 1906.
CONSTABLE, John, R.A. English School.
ON THE RIVER STOUR.
The scene, which is overlooked from a slight elevation on the bank of the
river, extends down through a picturesque valley in the County of Suffolk,
where Constable lived and loved so well to paint. The low-lying, deep blue
hills which skirt the horizon rise into a sky filled with broken, heavy, watery
clouds, which shadow the broad meadowlands beneath ; gleams of sunlight
illumine the broad acres and glint over the surface of the stream which winds
down beneath a rustic bridge, in the middle distance, to the foreground of the
picture, where two clumsy boats, with figures, are drawn up near the left
bank of the river. Above the boats is a large group of sturdy oaks; at the
right, a cottage snuggled down among a cluster of small trees and bushes
which creep along the bank of the stream to the immediate foreground, where
two boys are seated on the bank fishing.

GAINSBOROUGH, Thomas, R.A. English School.
PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST BY HIMSELF, when about 40 years
of age.
Seated sideways to the left with his arms folded across his breast; he
wears a reddish-brown coat and white neckcloth. The face is nearly in profile
and the soft gray eyes look directly out of the picture at the spectator. His
hair is a chestnut brown, and melts off from the face into a warm, dark back-
ground. The portrait is of a man of a highly sensitive, impressionable, and
emotional nature.

REYNOLDS, Sir Joshua, P.R.A. English School
PORTRAIT OF MRS. BALDWIN, Wife of the British Minister Pleni-
potentiary to the Court of Teheran.
Seated upon a dull red cushioned divan, with the figure to the front, the
face turned to the left in profile. She wears a Persian costume with an old
gold and white turban head-dress, topped with a bunch of red flowers. Her
hair is black and falls in small braids over her left shoulder; depending from a
black ribbon about her neck are strings of fine pearls; the gown is striped silk,
golden brown in color, with broad sash and buckle at the decollete waist, with
a white chemise; a broad ermine cape covers the shoulders, falling gracefully
down into her lap. The background is deep and rich in its warm brown
t ones, and has a dull red curtain at the left drawn up, showing a gleam of light
from a window.

ROMNEY, George. English School
Born at Furness, Lancashire, 1734; died at Kendal, 1802. Apprenticed
to a cabinet-maker. After residing at Kendal and York, Romney established
himself in London, 1762, where he obtained a premium from the Society of
Arts for a picture of the "Death of General Wolfe," and a second for an
historical painting in 1765. He accompanied Ozias Humphry to Rome, and
on his return in 1775 became established as a favorite portrait painter in Caven-
dish Square; he afterwards removed to Hampstead, and finally retired to Ken-
dal, where he died. He executed many portraits of Lady Hamilton.
PORTRAIT OF MRS. FITZHERBERT.
Painted for George IV. when Prince Regent. Seated with the figure to
the front, her face turned to the right, nearly in profile, the eyes looking in
the same direction. She wears a white dress, open at the neck, with a sash
around her waist, her abundant blond hair, bound with a pale blue ribbon,
falls about her face and shoulders in a charming and artistic manner. The
background is warm gray and cloudy in effect.

EARLY FRENCH SCHOOL ?
PART OF A POLYPTYCH,
consisting of three panels of unequal size, representing, to the left, Expulsion
of Devils from Heaven, The Mission of the Apostles, to the right, St. Giles.
Purchased, 1871. Panel, 59£ H.; 39| W.
Painted in Tempera upon gold background, with gilded Gothic framework (partly restored).
The painting shows strong traces of Siennese influence, but the types are
non-Italian, and probably the picture is an example of the little known
Avignonese School. The confinement of the Popes at Avignon, 1309 to 1377.
led to an immigration of Italian artists, of whom the chief was Simone Martini.
The native school must have felt the influence of this, with the result of
producing such a variation from the Siennese style as this panel displays.
The fact that the Saint represented is St. Giles, indicates a French rather than
an Italian origin, and this view is borne out by the misspelling hite for ite, in
the picture of the Mission of the Apostles. This was a French provincial
solecism.

Son of Paulus Joosten Wouwerman. He learnt the practice of his art from
his father, and studied landscape painting under Jan Wijnants, but he is
supposed to have also profited by the examples of Andries Both and Pieter
van Laer. Landscape always played a prominent part in his compositions.
Horses were his favorite study and he generally found reason to introduce at
least one of those animals into his pictures: a white horse often serves as his
principal mass of light. Few galleries are without specimens of his work;
in many he is abundantly represented; the Amsterdam Museum has 13,
Museum at The Hague 9, the National Gallery 9.

THE WILLIAM H. VANDERBILT
COLLECTION OF MODERN PAINTINGS
LENT BY
MR. GEORGE W. VANDERBILT
THE WILLIAM H. VANDERBILT COLLECTION
OF
MODERN PAINTINGS
LENT BY
MR. GEORGE W. VANDERBILT
The Catalogue of this loan is a reprint from that of Mr. William
H. Vanderbilt, published in 1886, with a prefatory note by Mr. S. P.
Avery.
NOTE.
Mr. William H. Vanderbilt was born in the year 1821. In 1854 he accom-
panied his father, Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt, and other members of his
family, on his steamship the "White Star," during the famous trip to notable
parts of Europe. It was the desire to visit Rome, but on account of the cholera
then raging there they could only land at Civita Vecchia, where Mr. W. H.
Vanderbilt purchased his first painting. Later on, in the early '60 's, he began
to purchase and commission pictures from a number of our native artists.
This experience did much to interest him in collecting works of art. His first
purchases were distributed throughout his residence on Fifth Avenue, south-
east corner of Fortieth Street. During 1868 and succeeding years he began
to purchase works by foreign artists. On the death of his father in 1877 his
increasing means enabled Mr. Vanderbilt to purchase examples of the cele-
brated living and recently deceased painters, which at that time had not
become common in this country. Frequently going to Europe, he visited
the national and private galleries, attended notable public sales, conferred
with reliable experts, made extensive purchases, and gave commissions to
several prominent artists of the time.
In course of events and with many art accumulations Mr. Vanderbilt
found that he required more extensive premises. He then built his final
residence at 640 Fifth Avenue, with adjoining picture galleries, to which he
removed in 1881, and where he continually added to his collection up to the
time of his death in 1885. Since then no paintings have been added, neither
have any of them ever been exhibited outside the residence, where for several
years it has not been convenient to admit visitors. In consideration of the
many applications to see the paintings, Mr. George Vanderbilt, having planned
to be absent from the city for the most of the coming year, has in the most
generous manner loaned this portion of his father's collection to the Metro-
politan Museum of Art, where it can be freely enjoyed by the public.

9 LOUIS XIV. AND THE GRAND CONDE.
(Extract of Letter from the Artist.)
"In order to deliver your picture of the 'Reception of the Prince of Conde
by Louis XIV.,' I have worked upon it without intermission to reach the
desired end, and I hope that I have succeeded. I hope also that you will be
satisfied, for I have done my best to arrive at this result. A few lines about
the subject will make you understand it in its details. The reception takes
place on the grand staircase at Versailles. This staircase no longer exists.
It was destroyed under Louis XV., but there remains an engraving of it at
that time, very well executed, which has enabled me to reconstruct it with
truth. In the year 1674 Conde had returned to Court, where he was received
in triumph. The King came forward to meet him on the grand staircase,
which was not his usual habit. The Prince was going up slowly, on account
of the gout, which made him almost helpless. As soon as he saw the monarch,
'Sire,' said he, 'I beg Your Majesty's pardon to make you wait so long.' 'My
cousin,' answered the King, 'do not hurry. When one is so loaded with
laurels as you are, it is difficult to walk quickly.' Louis XIV. pressed him in
his arms, and embraced him repeatedly. By the side of Louis XIV. stands
his son,the Duke of Burgundy, whom they called the Great Dauphin, at that
time thirteen years old. He died while young, without having reigned, and
was the father of Louis XV. Behind him is his preceptor Bossuet, Bishop
of Meaux. On the right and on the left are members of the Court."

10 AMBULANCE CORPS.
(Extract of a Letter from the Artist.)
"The title of my picture is 'The Arrest of an Ambulance, Eastern Part of
France, January, 1871.' They are civil Ambulanciers, who have been taken
by a Prussian patrol in a village where a battle has taken place. When their
papers have been examined and recognized in order by the Prussian general,
they will be released and authorized to collect the wounded and assist in the
German infirmaries. The spot where the scene is laid is a village in Franehe-
Comte; they have fought there; the Germans occupy it. The foot-soldiers
who surround the ambulances are Prussian Chasseurs (Rheinisches Jagers,
Battalion No. 8). The Prussian general is accompanied by an officer of the
Hussars (Leibhusaren, Regiment No. 2), and by an officer of the staff; bis

tunic and yellow collar, an officer of the Dragoons ; the other, an officer of the
Cuirassiers (Brandenburgisches Cuirassiers, Regiment No. 6, Kaiser Nicholas
I. von Russland). The dead body in the foreground is that of a Bavarian
foot-soldier. Those are also Bavarians who are at the end of the street, and
at the entrance of the house under the facade, and pierced by bullets. Here
are very minute explanations, but I thought that Mr. Vanderbilt would be
pleased to have all possible details about his picture. _ I hope that he may ba
satisfied with it, and that it will receive many compliments."

12 THE PICTURE GALLERY.
This represents a Gallery of Antique Paintings. Several visitors are
making good use of the catalogues and references which they have found in
the boxes on the tables. On the easel is a Monochrome by "Apelles"; above
which appears part of a large picture, taken from the great Mosaic in the
Naples Museum, which is probably a copy of the painting "The Battle of
Issus," by Philoxenos of Eretria. The picture over the doorway might be
attributed to Marcus Ludius, the inventor of that most charming and well-
known architectural decoration in which Pompeii abounds. Through the
doorway is seen another work, taken from a Mosaic in the Naples Museum,
representing "Strength Captivated by Love." The life-size figure is, by some
archaeologists, believed to be the "Medea" by Timomachos of Byzantium,
which picture Julius Caesar bought from the artist for 40 talents (£8,000) for
his collection in the gardens on the Tiber, and left by will to the Roman people.
Next to this, "The Sacrifice of Iphigenia," by Timanthes, is a picture much
praised by ancient writers; to the right appears a foreshortened Lion, which
there is reason to believe is the work of Pausias, who is said to have been the
first to paint objects in foreshortening, and never to have been surpassed in
that branch of art. The picture above it represents "A Theatrical Re-
hearsal," taken from a Mosaic in the Naples Museum.
This pair of pictures (8 and 12) have been engraved by A. Blanchard of
Paris.

Lucy, scarcely yet recovered from the bewilderment of her terror and the
faintness of her swoon, clings with all her light weight to the stranger's arm,
while yet she seems to be urging him onward. There is a look of entreaty,
blended with trust and helplessness, in the beseeching blue eyes and in the
wistful face The plaid, which she wears in the graceful old Scottish fashion,
folded mantillawise over her head and shoulders, still wet with the water he
has used to restore her to consciousness, clings closely round the fair face and
neck and slender figure. Her small gloved hands are clasped clingingly round
his strong arm. He, with knit brow and dark eyes fixed in a far-off look — it
may be that he now first sees the enemy of his house, the author of his father's
ruin and death, the usurper of his birthright; or that he already reads, as in a
vision, the mysterious interweaving of his fate with that of the innocent
daughter of his and his house's enemy, who clings to his arm, with dreamy
eyes, that seem, like his own, to see far into the future.

tenant bodies, scant o' cash,' drop in one after the other to pay rents and
arrears; often with great difficulty to themselves, and sometimes not without
unwillingness, even when they can, from a failing not uncommon in frail
human nature, viz.: a distaste to part with the cash. The agent, accustomed
to the work, and used to the many complaints of 'high rents, hard times,
failure of crops,' etc., takes it all as a philosopher, and quietly listens, chats,
and nibs his pen, having but one point in view — getting the cash. The par-
ticular incident illustrates what is not uncommon — a difficulty in arranging
contra-accounts, and for work 'done for his Honor, and for which his Honor
said himself was to be deducted from the rint.' The Lady, who is sometimes
the better man of the two, is active and looking after their interests, knowing
that a mistake might be made; while the clerk, likely to be more sharp than
polite, feels that in his, for the day, imposing and responsible position, he is
called upon to look closely into such charges — if a mistake exists, it may be
in their favor — and, in all probability, will in the end have to refer the matter
to his superior. The other figures are all accessories of the same story: The
man coming in warm, rubbing his head with his kerchief, chatting to the old
man of the weather, and the hard run he has had to be in time before his
Honor got busy, as he had to go look after some heifers in the field beyant
Patsy Conroy's after he had done his business; another stooping to pick up
some papers he has dropped out of his hat; while the agent's 'own man' is
seen coming in at the door with some books which will be required in the
course of the day. This is something like what I intended. After the warm
reception the picture has met with in Paris, I think I may venture to hope it
will still add to my reputation."

which tower above it have a dry and primitive look, making a fitting place for
a nocturnal visit of Macbethian witches. Nothing is exaggerated or too
nervous in this picture, which is painted with a light touch, perfectly repre-
senting great calm and serenity of the atmosphere." — Alfred Sensier's "Life

(Extract of a Letter from the Artist.)
"I have received with great pleasure your obliging letter. No one can be
more sensible than I to the expressions of sympathy which it contains. You
205
GALLERY 16.
must have already received the picture of 'Pia de Tolomei,' which I have
painted for you. I will give you the passage of history which inspired my
work.* Fia, of the noble family of the Tolomei, of Siena, was shut up in a
castle of the Maremma, by her husband, Nello della Pietra, who accused her of
infidelity. The poisoned air of this region killed her. I have, then, imagined
her upon the terrace of the castle, strong in her innocence, and defying her evil
destiny. Pia has been for many years a favorite subject with Italian painters
and poets. Her story is a mysterious one, and her personality has always
attracted a noble sympathy. Dante, who places her in his 'Purgatory,'
devotes to her only a few lines of the Fifth Canto, but these few lines are a
poem in themselves:
'Ah! when thou hast returned unto the world,
And rested there from thy long journeying.
Do thou remember me, who am the Pia?
Siena made me; unmade me, Maremma;
He knoweth it who has encircled first,
Espousing me, my finger with his gem.'
" Alfieri has written a fine tragedy, and many poets have sung the beauty
and the sad fate of Pia de Tolomei. You know my aspirations. I do not need,
therefore, to tell you what an attraction this noble and touching figure must
have for me. I have exerted myself, therefore, to the utmost to paint the sub-
ject as it presents itself to my imagination. My artist friends, and others in
whom I place great confidence, have praised the picture very highly; and, for
my own part, I am well pleased that this picture is to go to you, for I consider
it not only one of my very best works, but also one of the most affecting that
I have painted."

*The death of Pia de Tolomei occurred in the year 1295, or thirty years before the birth
of Dante; so that at the epoch at which Dante wrote his poem, the event must have beer,

77 THE WATER CARRIER.
In a letter addressed to his friend Thore in 1860, Millet refers to this
(.H'cture as follows: "In the woman coming from drawing water, I did not try
to portray a servant, but a wife who had just drawn water for her household
needs — the water with which she makes her husband's soup — and that she
. should appear to be carrying neither more nor less than the weight of the full
pails ; that through the kind of grimace that is forced on her by the dragging
down of the arms and the half-closed eyes, that just allow her to see, one could
divine on her visage an air of rustic goodness. I have avoided, as I always do,
with a sort of horror, anything that turned towards the sentimental ; I wished,
on the contrary, to show her accomplishing with simplicity and willingness
au act M/hicb is, with the other household duties, an everyday ^art of her
life."

79 THE SOWER.
"While patiently studying the action of his reapers, Millet produced a
figure which had long occupied his thoughts. We know what a serious affair
the sowing is to an agricultural people. Plowing, manuring, and harrowing
are done with comparative indifference, at any rate without heroic passion;
but when a man puts on the white grain-bag, rolls it around his left arm, fills
it with seed, the hope of the coming year, that man exercises a sort of sacred
ministry. He says nothing, looks straight before him, measures the furrow,
and, with a movement cadenced like the rhythm of a mysterious song, throws
the grain which falls to the earth and will soon be covered by the harrow.
The rhythmic walk of the sower and his action are superb. The importance
of the deed is real, and he feels his responsibility. If he is a good laborer he
will know how much seed to throw with every fling of his hand, adjusting the
amount sown to the nature of the soil. I have seen sowers who, before they
put foot upon the field, would toss a handful of grain into the air in the sign of
a cross; then, stepping upon the field, they would pronounce, in a low voice,
some indistinct words which sounded like a prayer." "The Sower" was sent
to the Salon of 1850, then held at the Palais Royal. It made some noise; the
young school talked about it, reproduced it in lithography, and it has remained
in the memory of artists as Millet's chef-d'oeuvre. Theophile Gautier was
touched by it. In the following quotation we see the impression made by
this virile work:
"'The Sower/ by M. J. F. Millet, impresses us as the first pages of 'Mare
au Diable' of Georges Sand, which are about labor and rustic toil. The night
is coming, spreading its gray wings over the earth ; the sower marches with a
rhythmic step, flinging the grain in the furrow; he is followed by a cloud of
pecking birds; he is covered with dark rags, his head by a curious cap. He
is bony, swart, meager, under this livery of poverty, yet it is life which his
large hands sheds; he who has nothing pours upon the earth, with a superb
gesture, the bread of the future. On the other side of the slope a last ray of
the sun shows a pair of oxen at the end of their furrow, strong and gentle
companions of man, whose recompense will one day be the slaughter-house
This is the only light of the picture, which is bathed in shadow, and presents
to the eye, under a cloudy sky, nothing but newly ploughed earth. Of all
the peasants sent to the Salon this year, we much prefer 'The Sower.' There
is something great and of the grand style in the figure, with its violent gesture,
its proud raggedness, which seems to be painted with the very earth that the
sower is planting." — (Sensier's "Life of Millet.")
